A fully fenced ~1,000 sq ft garden awaits--intentionally designed for productivity, sustainability, and beauty. This isn't just a garden... it's a working ecosystem.

Corn beds, thornless blackberries, blueberries, rosemary, lavender, calendula, cantaloupe, sunflowers, and zinnias bring both function and beauty together in one incredible setup. Beyond the garden, your food security expands even further with mature fruit trees--apple, peach, pear, and plum--plus elderberries ready for harvest season after season. And yes... there's more. A fully integrated chicken coop and run sits just steps away, complete with a natural composting system beneath a mature willow tree--creating a sustainable loop of soil health, livestock care, and food production.
