City Beet Farm For Sale
After four years of learning to farm, feeding our neighbourhood and growing this small business Maddy and I are ready to move on to other adventures. We have decided to put the business up for sale with everything that we have used to farm successfully. This includes all things from planting records to our new processing/cooler trailer. The following link https://www.citybeetfarm.com/pages/for-sale has lots more details.We are actively looking for someone or some folks to take over so if urban farming sounds like your next chapter or that of someone you know please please reach out. Please send us an email at info@citybeetfarm.com so that we can discuss further. We have loved our City Beet days and it is emotional to let this vibrant business go but we know that the time is right and that it will be an excellent opportunity for others.
Let the search for new farmers begin!!
