[QUOTE="farmerm, post: 6466144, member: 7195"] Nobody is advertising as that kind of ground is probably as rare as unicorn horn... Not all soils are equal, you want some nice loamy ground for successful market gardening, you don't want some heavy clay that bakes like brick or sand that can hold very little water or nutrients. I would think you need to look to find something where the land is or has been used for a market garden. The risk for land owners in certain circumstances is that land let for a such a purpose may loose some of the inheritance tax reliefs that apply to land that held as farmland. Owners may not wish to put a significant tax burden on the probate value of their estate for what may be in comparison a fairly modest rental income. The right land is out there but finding it will be a challenge. [/QUOTE]
