This historic Chippewa County farmland, owned by the same family for generations, presents a rare opportunity. The property spans 417 acres, featuring approximately 338 acres of tillable hay and pastureland and around 10 wooded acres that provide habitat for whitetail deer, grouse, turkey, rabbit, and sharp-tailed grouse. Additionally, there are approximately 69 acres of mixed vegetation with potential building sites. The fertile land is suitable for cattle, calves, sheep, and specialty uses such as Christmas trees, ornamentals, corn mazes, pumpkin patches, and other agritourism ventures. Portions of the property also have potential for solar or wind energy projects. The property produces premium Timothy Grass, valued for its high fiber, moderate protein, and low sugar. A 54' x 160' (8,640 sq ft) pole barn can store up to 15,000 small square bales and is large enough for farm-to-table events. The farm fronts M-48, providing year-round access to I-75 and US-2, major routes for transporting agricultural products from the Upper Peninsula to markets statewide and nationwide. Chippewa County dedicates much of its land to agriculture and is a major state producer of hay and forage. The climate is ideal for high-quality cool-season grasses such as timothy and alfalfa.
