Located in the famous "Black Dirt Region," this 39.1+/- acre property consists of high-yield production black dirt located in Goshen, NY. The sale consists of 7 parcels, access roads, maintained drainage ditches, a well, and 1.5+/- acres of upland ground.

The upland area offers a great spot to park equipment, temporarily store product, or potentially build a building with town approval. There is a high-volume well located in the northeastern corner of the upland portion of the property, just off the road. The high-volume well is approximately 580' deep with 6" casing and is reported to produce 300+ gallons per minute. This plays an integral part in the success of crop production during those dry summers.

Goshen and Pine Island are the heart of the Black Dirt Region, an ultra-fertile agricultural area in southern Orange County. Famous for its nutrient-rich, jet-black soil, it spans roughly 26,000 acres and is the largest concentration of such soil in the U.S. outside of the Florida Everglades.

The famous black dirt, known as "Muck," was formed over 10,000 years ago from the decaying vegetation of a massive, shallow glacial lake.

There are many crops that thrive in this soil. Onions: the undisputed king of the region. The sulfur-rich muck soil gives these yellow globe, red, and cipollini onions their uniquely spicy taste, high sugar content, and sturdy texture. Leafy greens, squash, pumpkins, and root vegetables also do exceptionally well. Because the soil is essentially a giant, stone-free bowl of compost, root crops like carrots, radishes, garlic, and beets can grow deep, straight, and blemish-free. The high organic and sulfur content of the soil gives local produce its distinct, prized flavor profile. Soybeans and feed corn are often grown as a crop rotation strategy. Farmers rotate these with their high-value vegetables to break pest cycles and naturally enrich the nitrogen levels of the soil. Sod is another option and does very well in this soil.

The property includes access roads that play an important part in transporting product and machinery, not only for these parcels but for many other landowners surrounding these lots. Whether you are just getting started or want to add to your existing property, this is a great opportunity.

You can farm the land yourself or lease it to other farmers as an investment opportunity. Leasing is very common in this region. This fertile ground can usually be leased for approximately $700.00 per acre.

The surrounding areas, including Goshen and Warwick, have a lot to offer. Wineries, cideries, distilleries, orchards, farmers markets, shopping, dining, horse racing, and more. Don't miss out on this opportunity.

The seller will consider owner financing with a proper down payment. This can be negotiated at the time of an offer. The seller requires that the listing agent be present during all showings.
