Vaca Walnut Orchard
Turn-key, fully-planted, owner-operated, mature-bearing walnut orchard featuring prime soils with developed groundwater resources with district water available too. The property is encumbered by a farmland conservation easement which prohibits subdivision and building a single-family residence. Comprised of Class 1 and 2 sandy to clay loams. These soils are well drained and have scant production limitations and are ideal for permanent plantings like walnuts.

Plus the farm is within Solano Irrigation District (SID) water service turnout off Byrnes Canal at SWC of the property. District water is not connected to the irrigation system.
