114 +/- Acre Certified Organic Farm in Southern Lee County

Property Description

Rare opportunities like this don't come available often. Located in southern Lee County, this 114 +/- acre farm offers an exceptional combination of highly productive certified organic cropland, recreational appeal, and long-term investment potential.

The farm includes approximately 78 +/- FSA tillable acres with a weighted Productivity Index of 116, featuring predominantly Selma and La Hogue loam soils along with portions of highly productive Comfrey loam near the creek bottom. Whether you're an established organic producer looking to expand your operation or an investor seeking quality Illinois farmland, the existing organic certification provides immediate value and eliminates the time and expense of transitioning conventional ground.

A 10,000-bushel grain bin offers convenient on-site storage, and the tillable acres will be available for the 2027 growing season. For buyers seeking passive income, the current owner is willing to discuss leasing back the tillable acreage.

Beyond its agricultural value, the property offers outstanding recreational opportunities. A scenic, clear-water creek with a rock bottom winds through the center of the farm, creating an excellent travel corridor for wildlife. Approximately 33 acres of timber and creek-bottom habitat support strong populations of deer, turkey, and pheasants, making the farm equally appealing to hunters and outdoor enthusiasts.

With paved road frontage on two sides, an excellent location just 20 minutes south of Dixon, 30 minutes north of Princeton, and approximately 90 minutes from the western Chicago suburbs, this property is well suited for farmers, investors, and recreational buyers alike.
