The current farm lease has been terminated, and the farm is open for the 2026 growing season.
Access to the tracts is from K Avenue, and the farms lie within three miles of U.S. Highway 169 and Iowa Highway 141, offering quick access to the Iowa highway system, local grain markets, and the amenities of the Des Moines Metro.
