Property Description
163-acre blueberry farm with good production w/ 37 acres of developable land. This farm is situated on a former peat bog, featuring exceptionally high organic matter content, which can significantly reduce top-dressing and input costs. The microclimate benefits from the moderating influence of the Columbia River's thermal mass and daily cooling breezes from the Pacific allowing the farm to typically ripen 10 to 14 days later than the Willamette Valley. Turnkey operation comes with the farm equipment. Of the 163 acres, 103 are currently planted with blueberries, including pollinator plants. Recent updates include the removal of 6 acres, which are being replanted with the Calypso variety. This replanting adjoins the 7 acres planted with Calypso in 2022. The Calypso variety is highly regarded for its yield, packability, and flavor, making it a desirable choice for commercial production.The farm is situated on a former peat bog. This soil type, characterized by high organic matter content, benefits blueberry cultivation by providing water retention while providing excellent drainage. The peat soils are naturally acidic, which is ideal for blueberries. This acidity helps the plants absorb essential nutrients from the soil. Consequently, the high organic matter reduces the need for fertilizer inputs. Peat soils also contribute to a friable soil structure, supporting root development and oxygen movement into the roots. The dark friable soil absorbs heat during the day and holds heat much longer than the typical sandy loam soils. Located near the Columbia River and Pacific Ocean, the farm experiences a unique microclimate. The river's thermal mass moderates temperature fluctuations. Pacific breezes contribute to this climate, resulting in a harvest that ripens 10 to 14 days later than the Willamette Valley. This later harvest can access potentially higher-priced late-season markets and extend the sales window.The farm is offered as a turnkey operation, including the needed farm equipment for production. A Littau harvester and an Oxbow harvester are included. Support equipment, such as a sprayer, tractors, and mowers, are also part of the sale.A shop facility is located at the farm's entrance, providing a workspace for equipment maintenance. A combined office and break room is attached to the shop.The farm's easy access to Interstate 5 in Longview, Oregon provides efficient access to processors and markets in Portland.
