Land for Lease- San Gregorio

250 acre ranch on Pomponio Creek near San Gregorio with up to 20-acres available for lease. Veggies, flowers, fruit trees – owners are open – the bottom 13-acres was a diverse organic farm until 15 years ago, has been mostly fallow since then, used some for cattle. Historically, this was a dry-flower growing area.

Infrastructure: containers, refrigerated boxcar, electrical, well-fenced, diesel and gasoline tanks above ground. Owner has some discs and restored Farm All tractors that he would consider sharing depending on tenants experience.

Lease rate: variable – willing to work with someone on it, important to have someone he trusts and will do a good job.

Water: 18-acre foot storage pond was installed by owner, 9 year-round springs on the property, Pomponio Creek riparian rights to half of whatever flows.

Good weather, good soil, good water. no residence currently available. Owners live in San Mateo County and visit the land weekly. Owner is a mechanical type who restores old cars, motorcycles and tractors, who helped the former tenant on the mechanical side. Very private, Pomponio road dead ends.
