The owner of this rental property is looking for a tenant who wants to grow food and garden! She appreciates the benefits that small-scale growing can provide to our environment and community and wants to find someone to work with this property. This property, in the Allen neighborhood of Lansing, includes a 2 bedroom/1.5 bathroom single-family home available with ~2,500 sq ft available for gardening.  Not to mention, the home has a beautiful and spacious back porch that would be perfect for potted plants or small garden boxes. Located in the highly desirable and diverse Eastside of Lansing, any farmer/gardener would have lots of access to other growers, gardening enthusiasts and food markets including the Allen Farmers Market, Hunter Park Garden House CSA and Greater Lansing Food Bank's Garden Project to name a few. To add icing to the cake, the owner of this property is supportive of the tenant keeping chickens, up to 4 of which (no roosters) are allowed by the city when in compliance with ordinances. Updates are also planned to go in on the exterior, including painting the garage and getting a new mailbox.

Flat workable land that has been fallow for 3 or 4 years. Many Prior crops of sod, soybeans, corn were successful. I'm busy working a smaller plot and don't have time or energy to work the larger parcels (available tracts are highlighted with Green border in the arial photo). Willing to lease any individually or all 3 at once. Rear of the property is higher ground, very sandy. Long narrow parceI is too shaded for most crops. Have soil sample info and other USDA reports about the topography. Preference will be given to farmers with active conservation practices to reduce spraying and tillage.

This 82.59 acre farm is comprised of Parcel R-18-05-20-002 and Parcel R-18-005-200-003 . The property features a 2-story house with 3 large bedrooms and 1 small bedroom/office/den, 3 1/2 bathrooms, abundant closet space and fully finished walkout basement. It has an attached heated 2 car garage with a stand up storage attic and the first floor of the house features a master bedroom with jacuzzi and access to a wood deck that offers a panoramic view of the farm. There are 2 barns and a shed on-site to support farming activities and the purchasing family would be located within the Saline School District.

Hygieia Homestead was established in July of 2006 and is currently operated by Mark Gillen and Janet Allen. It is a 55 acre property with 45 tillable acres of sandy to clay-loam soils that are seomwhat well drained, have a pH of 6.8-7.3 and 2.4% organic matter. Currently the farm cultivates certified organic fruits and vegetables.

This owner recently purchased 4 acres behind their home and is planning to grow on part of the land, but cannot manage all 4 acres on their own. So,, they are looking to lease out the remaining acreage to a small-scale farmer who can grow in less-than-ideal soils and who is interesting in helping improve overall soil health. Currently there is only water access from the residence, ~100' from field, but the owner is looking into adding a seperate well for field.

This is a largely undeveloped property that the owner would like to see in agricultural use, they are particularly interesting in hosting some bee-hives!

This farm is registered with MDARD and currently has a clean room established in the house for eggs. The clientele for these eggs is between Laingsburg and
Lansing and points in between. The business is growing beyond my capability to run it on my
own. The expansion potential is there. This farm was purchased as a piece of land in 1998,
(31.33 acres) and has not seen a chemical since. The house and outbuildings were put on the
land in 2003. It has been farmed since 2005. Certified organic vegetables for market and field
crops were grown until 2018. The tillable land is currently leased to a certified organic dairy
operation. The licensed clean room for eggs was built and licensed in 2018 and is currently
licensed. Mineral rights go with the property.
