About This Property

This 14.5-acre organic honeyberry/haskap farm in Falmouth, Nova Scotia, offers a turnkey U-Pick and wholesale operation. Located just 10 minutes from Windsor and 45 minutes from Halifax, it features 4.2 acres with approximately 3,500 premium haskap bushes. The farm cultivates five next-generation, large, sweet, and tangy haskap varieties, ensuring an extended harvest from mid-June to early August. Sales channels include direct-to-consumer through social media (primarily Facebook), pre-orders for pickup in Halifax, and partnerships with restaurants and farmers' markets. The U-Pick operation attracted over 1,000 customers in its first season, demonstrating strong local support and low marketing costs due to word-of-mouth. The farm follows organic practices, using no pesticides or synthetic fertilizers. Haskap plants are exceptionally cold-hardy, thriving in Nova Scotia's climate and becoming more productive each year. The property sits on a hill with panoramic views of the Avon River and Ski Martock, offering direct road access and electric hookup. It's an ideal location for building a home or an eco-tourism retreat, within walking distance of Martock Ski Hill and OnTree Adventure Park, and along the Annapolis Valley farm route. With only two months of hands-on work needed for berry production annually, the remaining time allows for expansion of berry production, raising animals, starting a flower farm or vineyard, or hosting events and retreats. This farm is well-suited for a family-run operation, offering the potential for financial independence and a sustainable lifestyle without relying on external labor.
