Income Property

Embracing the principles of land stewardship, the farms are enrolled in the Conservation Reserve Program (CRP), demonstrating a commitment to environmental conservation and sustainable land management. This not only contributes to the preservation of the land’s natural beauty but also provides a steady stream of income, with the CRP contracts bringing in a combined annual return of $82,955. Additionally, there is $3,000 per year coming from an annual grazing lease. This symbiotic relationship between conservation and economic benefit underscores the unique value of these properties.

Solar Farm Potential

Another opportunity for potential income that has been deployed throughout Sherman County are solar farms, also known as utility scale solar projects. These solar projects have been utilized by landowners to provide income streams from portions of their property not currently used for production agriculture or recreation. Bardenhagen Grass Valley Farms stand out as strong candidates for solar projects as we continue to see their implementation throughout Central Oregon.

A Canvas of Opportunities

Across its vast acreage, the properties unveil diverse topographies and elevations, from rolling hills to expansive rangelands, each offering unique views and environments. The existing structures, including houses, barns, and grain silos, provide a foundation for renovation and a glimpse into the lives of those who resided here in days past. Although these buildings bear the marks of time and are by no means “move-in ready,” they offer a canvas for renovation or replacement, allowing the new owner to tailor the properties to their imagination, whether it be as a working farm, a private retreat, or a sanctuary for wildlife.
