The farm manager resides nearby and has kept this historic family-held property in pristine condition; continued management is available. Approximately 250 acres of the property is protected by a Farmland Conservation Easement held by the California Farmland Trust; the easement requires the parcels remain as a contiguous farming unit, but does not restrict the agricultural use (crops grown) on the property. The easement allows for two currently undeveloped building envelopes along the south edge of the property, one for an employee residence and a separate area designated for an owner residence, with easement access from Church Street. The building envelops are located on an elevated river bluff above the flood plain, providing expansive views of the orchard and river area. The Shop Yard is situated on a separate river bluff site with access from Elliott Road.
