Walla Walla County, WA

We have available for acquisition a large, contiguous farm that is currently planted in CRP grasses, but no longer under any active contracts as of September 30, 2020.  This farm presents a unique opportunity; the new owner could begin actively farming or choose to potentially re-enroll the acres into conservation contracts with the USDA.  This asset lies in Walla Walla County approximately 13 miles Northwest of Prescott, WA, in South-Central Washington State. The physical address is on Wooden Road, Prescott, WA 99348.

This sale of this asset contains both deeded acres and also a Washington State Department of Natural Resources lease.  The deeded acres consist of ten tax parcels that, per the Walla Walla County Assessor, account for 4692.05 +/- total deeded acres.  Acres under the current Washington State DNR lease with the Seller and to be transferred with the sale, consist of one tax parcel totaling 640.0 acres.  This presents the opportunity for a new owner to have 5332.05 total, contiguous acres under their control.

The Walla Walla County Farm Service Agency shows total farmland on this property, inclusive of the DNR lease, as 5459.98 acres, broken down as 4819.98 acres deeded and 640.0 acres under state lease.  The FSA shows total, tillable crop land as 4212.2 acres broken down as 3742.2 acres deeded and 470.0 acres leased.  All of the crop land acres were enrolled in the CRP program through the 2020 contract year and are currently still planted to CRP grass stands.

Elevation of the property runs between approximately 900 feet and 1400 feet and annual rainfall for this area averages ten to eleven inches per year, per the USDA Natural Resources Conservation Service.  Soils on the property are primarily made up of Ritzville Silt Loam and Ritzville Very Fine Sandy Loam with 8% to 45% slopes throughout.  There are no irrigation water rights located on the property or included in the sale.

Per the Walla Walla County Planning Department, the zoning of the property is Primary AG with a 40-acre minimum parcel size.  A new home could be built atop one of the many ridges, subject to Walla Walla County's approval.  The property offers panoramic views of the surrounding area with the Blue Mountains to the east, and wildlife abounds on the property, including large herds of deer and different species of game birds.

The property is accessed via paved and gravel, county-maintained roads.
