Build your ideal off-grid self-reliance homestead at Riverbed Ranch! Utah non-profit agricultural co-op is offering 2 acre lots in their Riverbed Ranch modern homesteading community! Lot 176 is taken but there are over 100 lots still available! About: The Utah OSR Land Cooperative is a non-profit agricultural co-op organized under Title 3 of the Utah Code. The co-op shareholders together own Riverbed Ranch -- a 1,245 acre piece of farmland located in Juab County on the border of Tooele County, along with 2,455 acre-feet of water rights. The residential area has been surveyed into 250 two to 3.9 acre lots where families can build the online-but-off-grid farmsteads of their dreams. Benefits: Our current 120+ shareholders value their agricultural cooperative as an ideal opportunity to enjoy: ? Self-Sufficiency – Providing for their family's essential needs without having to rely on markets or the government for food, water, power or sanitation. ? Family – Insulating their children from unwanted influences in our cities, and providing them a more carefree rural lifestyle, where they can learn to work. ? Safety – A place of safety for their families, from things either now or in the future, and ? Heath – The health benefits of growing your own more-nutritious, non-GMO food untainted by pesticides and herbicides. (We're going to create our own organic foods label for local distribution!). Save 30% on construction costs! As far as housing is concerned, our co-op is almost exactly the same as the housing co-ops in Chicago & New York. In those megapolises, rent is so high that often renters will pool their resources and buy their apartment building. Then, they create a housing cooperative where everyone owns a share of the building, and are given exclusive use of their particular apartment -- thus everyone saves money and they aren't squeezed out by continually-increasing rents. And, if they do ever move, they can sell their share to someone who wants their apartment. We're doing exactly the same thing, except with land for family farms. Obligations: Riverbed Ranch has no CC&Rs and no HOA. (The co-op does have an elected board and a board member can be removed quickly by the members if needed). Each shareholder agrees to build out the following within 3 years: 1. A passive solar home, of at least 600 square feet, that requires little or no outside energy to heat or cool. We recommend at least 800 square feet of living space, but you can build as big as you want. 2. Shop or Barn for animals and/or storage (no minimum size) 3. Greenhouse, minimum 600 square feet, 1,200 recommended. 4. Garden/orchard 5. A 6” well with 2 horse power pump with 400' of lift. 6. Approved sanitation system. How to leave the co-op Just as in any other housing co-op, you can sell your share along with all your improvements at market value. Within the first 5 years the co-op reserves first right of refusal to purchase it at market value. Learn More!
