Preferred tenant would be a beginning farmer (USDA definition of less than 10 years) with experience and a strong business plan.

Room available for the development of high tunnels and greenhouse. In addition, the farm offers a unique opportunity (but is not required) for a possible partnership with the adjacent Tolland County Agricultural Center and UConn Extension Center for research, education, and the development of additional farm infrastructure.
