LOCATION: This property is located in the “heart” of the Columbia Basin Irrigation Project, and is identified as Farm Unit 188, Irrigation Block 18, Columbia Basin Project. It has excellent and durable water, good soils and quality productivity. This orchard sits 10 miles southeast of Othello, WA, on State Highway 17. It lies on the north side of the Scootney Lake Reservoir, sandwiched between the main SCBID irrigation canal and SR-17 just west of Booker Road. It is situated in the Columbia Basin Irrigation Project, a United State Bureau of Reclamation (USBR) project that brings irrigation water to the desert from Grand Coulee Dam and Banks Lake. PROPERTY: The property is one parcel of 210.55 gross acres with 176.5 acres planted. 145 acres of mixed apple varieties (WA2, Aztec Fuji, Crips Pink, Honey Crisp, Brookfield , Pacific Gala, September Wonder, Reds, Granny Smith and Lady In Red), 22 acres of mixed cherries (9 Bing, 7 Sweetheart and 6 Skeena), and 9.5 acres of Duke Blueberries. The Gala block behind the shops, the Crips Pink grafts and the Blueberries are in transition to “organic”. First year certification will be completed in May 2018. In place are newly grafted and training systems for increased density per acre. The surrounding area is heavily abundant with other orchards -- mostly apples. With a mixture of both traditional growing operations and organic plantings in the immediate area, one could certainly transition either way. IRRIGATION: The (SCBID) South Columbia Basin Irrigation District provides the water to the property; however, it is delivered to the property via canals and buried pipelines from the ECBID. This water is NOT a water right. It is a WATER ALLOTMENT that is permanently tied to the land. Irrigation is approximately $12,000 per year. There is an irrigation settling pond on the property where the irrigation water is delivered to. All the irrigation to the entire farm starts here. The pump station and electrical panels are at the SE boundary of the pond, as well as the enclosed area where crop additives are infused. UTILITIES: The property is served by Electricity from Big Bend Electric Cooperative, a rural electric cooperative. Domestic water is from private wells, and sewage disposal is through private septic systems. Phone service and internet are optional services that have multiple providers in the area, and are subject to personal choice. IMPROVEMENTS: There are 3 homes on the property. First is a 2013 Fleetwood (MfgHm) Model 28684-W. This home was bought new in 2013. The family lives in this home. There are 2 other homes; one is for extended family members, and the other is set up for farm help. One is a 2003 Fleetwood 27 X 52 and the other is a 924 sqft, 1984 Fleetwood. In addition, there is a living quarters bunkhouse with a garage. The shop is a basic farm repair shop. Shop and equipment are ready for daily operations. EQUIPMENT: A full line of equipment is available for purchase with the property, depending upon the price negotiations. This includes mowers, ladders, wind machines, some tractors and shredders, to name the major parts. Also included are the permanent fixtures that include pumps, panels and irrigation equipment. A comprehensive list will be included at a later date.
