Established Cranberry Operation with Recreational Opportunities
Located in Monroe County, in the heart of Wisconsin's cranberry country, this property presents a rare opportunity to acquire an established cranberry operation with significant acreage and exceptional recreational value. The combination of an operating cranberry marsh, existing infrastructure, expansion potential, and an on-site residence makes this a compelling option for those looking to enter the cranberry industry or expand an existing operation.
The property includes 43.45 acres of established cranberry beds that are currently contracted with Ocean Spray. Most of the beds are planted in Stevens cranberry vines, with several beds planted in a high-producing hybrid variety. Established irrigation systems are in place, including automatic frost protection that activates sprinklers when temperatures fall below a predetermined threshold.
Two reservoirs provide water for the cranberry operation, and there is ample ground available for sourcing sand used in bed maintenance and future development. There is also room to expand the existing operation by adding additional cranberry beds. This creates an opportunity for an experienced grower to increase production or for a new operator to build upon an established foundation rather than starting from scratch.
Select equipment used in the cranberry operation will convey with the sale. A complete list of included equipment can be provided upon request.
Approximately 411 acres are included with the property, offering outstanding recreational opportunities beyond the agricultural operation. The property supports deer, turkey, and bear, while the marsh, reservoirs, and surrounding habitat provide excellent waterfowl hunting. An established trail system runs throughout the property and marsh, offering convenient access for hunting, property management, and cranberry operations.
A 3-bedroom, 2.5-bathroom home and garage are also included with the sale, providing the convenience of living on-site and remaining close to the operation. The main floor features in-floor heat, while the basement offers additional unfinished space that could be converted into another bedroom, living area, office, or other functional space.
With an established cranberry operation, Ocean Spray contract, irrigation and frost protection systems, multiple reservoirs, available sand resources, expansion potential, extensive recreational acreage, and an on-site home, this property offers a unique blend of agricultural productivity and outdoor enjoyment. Whether you are looking to enter the cranberry industry or expand an existing operation, this Monroe County property provides a strong foundation with room to grow.
