120 fenced acres of pristine rolling hills in Pontotoc County, Oklahoma, near the small town of Roff. About half of the property is pasture, while the other half is wooded. Four creeks converge on the property, making for beautiful riparian areas with large heritage trees. Grasses/Land Management/Wildlife: This property has not been sprayed with any chemical pesticide or herbicide. Much time was invested clearing cedar/juniper by hand using chainsaw, brush hogging, and natural burning methods. Native grasses have returned in abundance as have quail, wild turkey, and other birds. Many areas have been seeded with clover and wildflower for pollinators. Deer are present. Other wildlife seen include the American woodcock, several types of raptors, night hawk, barred owls, and blue heron. We bought this property with the plans of building our home here; however, we are moving out of state due to a new job. Edible plants and trees on the property include native pecans that are pecan scab resistant, walnuts, wild grape, wild rose, persimmon, plum, blackberry, clover, garlic, other herbs such as rosemary, and medicinal plants such as horsemint (spotted bee balm) and comfrey, and many edible mushrooms such as chicken of the woods and lobster mushrooms. Utilities/Water: Rural electric co-op power and telephone land line are at the property line. Neighbors at the property line have rural water so it is in the area. Cell phone service pings at the front of the property. As you get towards the back of the property where it is more secluded, the cell service is spotty. There is a hand dug well on the property that has been rehabilitated and could be used for livestock or wildlife. Many of the creeks are wet during the rainy season. One creek that is likely spring fed runs throughout the year although it can get quite low during July and August. There is potential to build a damn on this creek to provide for additional stock water/pond. As many of the cedar trees have been cleared, several seeps which could be developed with spring boxes have appeared as the aquifer has been replenished. Topographical maps show that the property commands two complete watersheds, so you can control what chemicals end up in your ground water. This area is known for abundant natural springs. It was our intention to preserve the aquifer using the grass and ground water management modeled after the Selah Bamberger Ranch Preserve. A small pond is stocked with fish and visited by wildlife. Improvements: 40 ft. high cube shipping container which is water tight for storage; new fence and two entrance gates on the south side of property. Potential Use: This special property has rolling, accessible hills with different microclimates. It could be used for organic ranching and farming, grow any type of specialty crops, permaculture practices, conservation, hunting, recreation, and a secluded/quiet/relaxing homestead. There are many potential home sites not visualized from the road.
