Backyard farmer with 8 years of sustainable farming experience looking to expand the scale. It will be just vegetables. I would need access to water (must have) and electricity (nice to have) and a farm about 1 acre or less.
Farmer Seeking Land 7093
I’m a clinical herbalist and educator seeking a small, quiet piece of land to sustainably grow 3–5 medicinal herbs that I use in my practice, cultivate mushrooms, and live in intentional relationship with the land. I hold an MS in Environmental Science, and my work is rooted in land care, slow growing, and reciprocal relationship with place. While I’m not a production farmer, I bring experience in growing medicinal herbs, native planting, and land-based education.
My ideal arrangement includes:
- A small plot of land (¼ acre or less) with access to water
- A shaded or wooded area for small-scale mushroom cultivation
- Optional housing, such as a standalone cottage or small home, clean and in good condition, for long-term living
- Optional space to host small herbal workshops or community classes
I’d be happy to offer occasional workshops if that fits the space, and I’m open to helping with land projects or volunteer coordination. If you or someone you know has a tucked-away space with land, and possibly housing, that resonates with this vision, I’d love to connect.
Farmer Seeking Land 7091
Family Flower Farm focused on Dahlia production, looking to expand current growing space. Looking for 0.5-3 acres (negotiable), with access to water (electricity is a plus). This season to grow 5,000+ dahlias, in addition to a variety of annual and perennial cut flowers/foliage.

Full family involvement (husband/wife team plus children), 10+ years of farming experience with over half of that time specific to dahlias. Growing for the last 3 years at both our family home and several plots at a Montgomery County community garden, but have outgrown our locations. Do not wish to move our family residence, but would like to continue expanding our cut flower business with additional growing space in an easily commutable distance in Darnestown, Rockville or Potomac. Husband/wife both medical professionals off the farm.
Farmer Seeking Land 7090
We are two long-time organic vegetable growers (18 years experience for me, 8 for my partner) ready to bring our shared vocation to a place of our own. Farming isn’t just work for us; it’s the craft that has shaped our lives. After years of learning what makes a farm both productive and humane, we’re building No Further Farm, a low-till, thoughtfully mechanized diversified vegetable operation rooted in respect for soil, labor, and community. We love the rhythms, the problem-solving, the clean systems and good tools, and the way disciplined farming creates both quality product and quality of life. Systems thinking is our bread and butter—standardize, streamline, simplify- because it lets us farm with focus, care, and joy.
We’re looking for land where we can put down real roots and build a farm that reflects this calling. Good soils, reliable water, and access to strong markets matter, but so does the relationship: clear communication, shared stewardship, and a sense of mutual respect with the landowner. We’re seeking 2-5 acres of arable ground, we’re flexible on structure (lease, lease-to-own, or long-term tenancy) and we’re seeking a place where long-term stability allows us to invest deeply in the land and community. Our experience tells us that there is ample opportunity for direct marketing in the DC metro area.
Ultimately, we’re looking for the right place to practice our craft and continue this vocation, somewhere we can genuinely say, “No further. This is the place.”

This venture aims to serve the African diaspora community in the United States, providing them with familiar produce while promoting healthy eating habits. The farm will also serve as a model, encouraging others to explore farming and adopt nutritious eating practices.

My dream is to establish the premier vegetable farm in Maryland.
Farmer Seeking Land 7084
Farmer seeks land partner for land and resources to implement an AI driven robotic organic seed and sod farm. Possibly, an organic golf course and/or vineyard.
Our mission is to use Ai and automation to eliminate pesticide and water, energy use and nutrient run-off.
We believe in order to eliminate pesticide use across the board, a less expensive more effective means of controlling weeds, disease and pasts needs to be available. We can do that.
After turfgrass and vineyards, we will apply to all of agriculture.

Farmer Seeking Land 7080
My passion for agriculture began in childhood while growing up near the International Institute of Tropical Agriculture (IITA) in Nigeria. Living in that environment and learning directly from a farm manager gave me an early foundation in farming and inspired me to pursue it as a lifelong
career.
In 2006, I established my first farm in Nigeria. There, I built practical expertise in both aquaculture and poultry. I successfully raised and processed 17,000 catfish, roasting them on-site and supplying eateries, which taught me the value of integrating production with direct
marketing. In poultry, I grew 10,000 chicks to laying maturity, gaining hands-on experience in flock management, egg production, and the business side of poultry farming.
Now living in the United States, I have continued to build on this foundation. I am a recognized Beginner Farmer in Howard County and a member of the Maryland Farm Bureau. Recently, I leased three-quarters of an acre of farmland in Howard County, where I cultivated soybeans that
are currently thriving. This small but meaningful step reinforced my determination to expand into larger-scale farming.
My vision is to secure a larger tract of land to establish a poultry farm specializing in egg production, while also scaling up soybean cultivation to provide both a marketable crop and a sustainable feed source. Beginning in March–April of the next planting season, I plan to expand soybean acreage significantly. This integrated model of soybeans and poultry will strengthen
food security, create a reliable source of income, and contribute to the local agricultural
economy.
Farming is more than a profession for me. It is a passion rooted in my upbringing and carried across continents. With the right support, I am confident in my ability to build a successful, sustainable agribusiness that grows in both scale and impact.

Farmer Seeking Land 7071:
I’m an emerging farmer with 5+ years of agricultural experience. Working in collaboration with other farmers on growing operations of varying sizes located throughout the DMV has given me a diverse array of experience in specialty crop production, land management and animal husbandry.
In 2023 I started my own farm venture because I wanted to increase access to nutrition while serving as a model of environmental stewardship. I believe that agriculture can be a powerful tool for empowering individuals and communities alike by fostering resilience and self-reliance in the face of a worsening global climate crisis. Moreover, I believe that growing food is an exercise in hope, offering emotional sustenance as well as physical sustenance as we sow the seeds for a promising tomorrow.
For the last year, I have been leasing land in Brookeville where I am raising a mixed herd of myotonic and angora goats as well as a flock of laying birds with the help of my fiance. I also established a turnkey regional honeybee business and have beehives at outyards scattered across Central Maryland.
I’m putting out feelers for a land arrangement now that would ideally include on-site private housing for my fiance and I as well as our dog, a seven y/o spayed pit bull mix with a huge heart. Open to any acreage. Fenced pasture with barn/shelter, water access, and storage desired. Most interested in raising goats for dairy & fiber production as well as laying birds, possibly rabbits. Space for a small apiary and garden would be a plus.

Farmer Seeking Land 7062:
I am a nurse by training and a mycologist by passion. During the peak of the pandemic, hiking and the woods provided me the peace that I needed. I began to notice how many varieties of mushrooms existed and then dove into a love for everything mycology. Over the last few years I have cloned and cultivated many species of mushrooms. Currently I am using a townhouse in Baltimore City for incubating and fruiting mushrooms. I would love the opportunity to find a few acres of wooded land to begin outdoor cultivation. As a mushroom cultivator, we create a lot of mushroom compost which is amazing for gardens and farms. A symbiotic relationship. My family of immigrants is steeped in horticulture – this is a family business and passion.
We are looking to grow into full production with an enclosed grow/processing building and outdoor space. This has been a journey full of new challenges and hopeful possibilities. Thanks for your interest in hearing my dream.

Our farm will support our local community, our veteran brothers and sisters, and will help ensure access to affordable crops year round locally.
