Seeking Georgia Farmland: Lease or Lease-to-Own (20–200+ Acres)

Who I am
Seasoned operator and builder seeking farmland in Georgia to develop a high-quality, revenue-diverse operation combining specialty crops, educational programming, and light agri-tourism. Strong track record managing teams, budgets, and multi-site projects; fully insured with capital reserved for site improvements and equipment.

What I’m looking for

  • Acreage: 20–200+ acres (open to larger if utilities/water are established)
  • Location: Within ~2 hours of Atlanta (North GA, West GA, Middle GA all considered)
  • Access/Utilities: Year-round road access, electricity on site or at road, reliable water source (well, municipal, springs, or creek/pond rights)
  • Soils/Topography: Well-drained ground for row crops and high tunnels; mix of pasture + timber is ideal
  • Structures (nice-to-have): Barn/shed, equipment storage, fencing, walk-in or cold room, housing or RV pad
  • Zoning: Agricultural or compatible; openness to agri-tourism uses (U-pick, farm dinners, workshops), and occasional filming permitted a plus

Intended uses (phased)

  1. Regenerative row crops & specialty produce (market-garden scale ramping up to wholesale)
  2. Perennials (berries, grapes/trellis fruit, herbs) + value-add (jams, seasoning, teas)
  3. Education & workforce: paid internships, veteran/youth training days, school/culinary partnerships
  4. Light agri-tourism: seasonal U-pick, farm suppers, small events; compliant, insured, and neighbor-friendly
  5. Optional: apiary, mushroom yard, cut-flowers, and film/photo site rentals (low-impact, contract-only)

What I can offer landowners

  • Reliable, responsible tenancy: professional operations, clear communication, and on-time payments
  • Property stewardship: soil building, brush control, pasture management, erosion mitigation, and improvement of existing infrastructure
  • Flexible deal structures: long-term lease, lease-to-own, or revenue-share on defined agri-tourism/filming days
  • Improvements at my cost: fencing, water lines, high tunnels, cold storage—subject to agreement
  • Insurance & compliance: general liability, event riders as needed, permits pulled before any public activity

Deal preferences

  • Term: 3–10 year lease (with extensions) or lease-option
  • Start: Next 60–120 days (flexible for the right fit)
  • Budget: Market-rate lease; open to tiered rent that scales with improvements and acreage in production

Next steps
If your property fits most of the above, please message with:

  • Parcel location & acreage
  • Water/utility details + current soil use
  • Photos (house/structures/fields) and any maps/surveys
  • Your preferred arrangement (lease, LTO, partnership)

I’m ready to visit qualified properties and move quickly on a win-win agreement.
