Profit share market garden opportunity - Hogarth, Northern NSW
Southview orchard is an established Peach orchard with 1500 trees in 6 different varieties, located at Hogarth Range with its rich volcanic soil, 30 km west of Casino.
The orchard occupies 2ha under netting and equipped with 2 cool rooms, a packing shed, 2 dams and tractors, mowers, mulcher, rotary hoe and plough. Our harvest mainly goes to the local Farmers Markets, farm gate sales and pick your own.
We want to diversify into a market garden and have a 0.5acre undernetting ready for a start and a possibility of another 2 acres to develop further into different fruit orchards. While accomodation is not available, plenty of space is available to put your trailer van.
