Eastern Oregon Sage Hen Farm Located Outside Hines

Productive Eastern Oregon Farm: Sage Hen Farms is a remarkable agricultural property sprawling across 281.29 acres just outside the tranquil communities of Burns and Hines, Oregon.

The land is primed for hay production, livestock grazing, or a blend of both, supported by a well-designed infrastructure that includes a homesite, a spacious shop, and corrals. A single well irrigates a 125-acre pivot, complemented by additional acreage historically watered with hand lines and a big gun. The pivot area, enclosed by perimeter fencing, features a modern Zimmatic irrigation system and a turbine pump, currently nurturing lush alfalfa fields that provide a strong foundation for hay operations. Portions of the property serve as irrigated pasture, with potential for conversion to increased hay production, offering flexibility for diverse farming pursuits.

Both the home and the shop's living quarters are currently rented, generating consistent rental income. The entire setup is enclosed by a perimeter fence, simplifying management and security. Water Rights and Agricultural Potential: The property benefits from an irrigation well supporting the pivot and hand line systems, backed by established water rights with certificates dating back to 1977 and 2009. Sage Hen Creek meanders through the pivot ground, providing a natural water source that attracts wildlife year-round. Located within Hunting Unit 71, the farm may qualify for valuable landowner preference tags for mule deer and elk, adding a recreational dimension to this working ranch. With 130.29 acres of range and over 150 acres under irrigation, this property balances productive agricultural land with natural habitat.
