Self Sustainable Micro Farm & House
Description
Welcome to a truly exceptional opportunity to purchase a self sustainable, eco friendly, and income producing farm that is located right outside the lovely small town, Marianna, FL. This pristine 20-acre farm with a charming 3 bed 2 bath house is nestled under the towering pine and live oak tree and is a testament to the potential of modern agriculture. Boasting a 4000 sqft hydroponic greenhouse equipped with a year-round climate-controlled NFT hydroponic system, this property is a perfect for growing a wide variety of high-value crops, from microgreens to strawberries and beyond.
You may be asking yourself, what is hydroponics?
Hydroponics is a method of growing plants by placing the roots in liquid nutrient solutions rather than in soil. Growing hydroponically can save up to 90% of the water traditionally needed.
The advanced enclosed system recirculates the water and the plants only use what they need. The mixing tanks have a computerized system that tests the nutrients and pH, then adjusts nutrients to ensure the right amount is added to grow our lettuce in optimal conditions. The greenhouse is herbicide and pesticide free.
