Just give me a call at 828-274-3400.Wed, 16 Apr 2008 09:47:31 -0700http://www.trulia.com/voices/profile/Real_Estate_Pro-Asheville_NC-180222/http://www.trulia.com/voices/profile/Real_Estate_Pro-Asheville_NC-180222/Hi Molly, we can easily set you up with a search for property that will work for your farm. Do you have an idea of the acreage that you would want? This and your price range will determine the proximity to Asheville. There are also many smaller towns within 20 minutes' drive from Asheville that you might want to consider. I would be happy to assist you if you would like to provide a bit more information. I'm not sure what you are thinking of for the lavender - I can tell you that the whole greater Asheville area is filled with craft shops and the type of stores that may purchase. I am from the UK originally, and grow a few varieties of lavender with reasonable success in my tiny yard!Wed, 19 Mar 2008 10:19:24 -0700http://www.trulia.com/voices/profile/Real_Estate_Pro-Canton_NC-186649/http://www.trulia.com/voices/profile/Real_Estate_Pro-Canton_NC-186649/Hi Molly, You might also consider looking in Haywood County, the county next to Buncombe County where Asheville is located. Waynesville, Clyde, Maggie Valley, and other areas in Haywood County offer the beauty of the country and mountains, but are only about 30 miles from Asheville. We have beautiful farmland with gorgeous mountains as the backdrop. Happy to help.Wed, 19 Mar 2008 07:12:10 -0700http://www.trulia.com/voices/profile/Other-62629-67254/http://www.trulia.com/voices/profile/Other-62629-67254/I have a friend with acreage that is just sitting that could accommodate you. my email is barbara.mcdonald@insightbb.com should you want to email me.Sun, 06 Jan 2008 07:45:07 -0800http://www.trulia.com/voices/profile/Real_Estate_Pro-Asheville_NC-127961/http://www.trulia.com/voices/profile/Real_Estate_Pro-Asheville_NC-127961/Molly: With the opening of I-26 all the way into Tennessee land that was once remote is now easily accessible. The focus North of Asheville has been on building on mountain which has resulted in the new slope ordinances. However, there is also valley property that would make a good small farm. I would be glad to send you land listings for you to consider. It will be important for you know what soil type you are looking for. Might I suggest you consider sending a soil sample from a successful lavender farm to your local Ag Center for testing. We can then use it for comparison to available properties. The comparison test would give you the advantage and make you the expert when looking at property. If I can be a further help I'd be glad to.

NC is loaded with old tabacco farms that are now no longer needed because of the lack in demand. You should be able to find what you want, and I will help if you can help me.

If you are looking for just a few acres, try a local residential specialist. Perhaps one will chime in here. If not, ask friends and family. Look at www.crs.com. The Realtors there have complteted educaiton and volume requirements in order to achieve the designation. This provides you of an assurance of knowledge, experience and competency. If you are searching for a larger parcel of land, I suggest ot try a member of the Realtor Land Institute. Members here specialize in land sales.
