Specifications include, but are not limited to: Qualified Farmers who would like to lease land for food production, on specific Natural Area(s) located within and near the City boundaries as specified in this solicitation. The Natural Areas Department (NAD) has approximately 250 acres available for local food production on two natural areas, Flores del Sol and Soaring Vista. Both are located within the Fort Collins – Loveland Community Separator. NAD is seeking Farmers to farm portions of the two natural areas. (See the attached maps showing the areas available for lease.) The natural areas will not be exclusive to the Farmers’ awarded leases. NAD may restore portions of the land to native vegetation to provide wildlife habitat and provide trails for public use of the site. NAD will work with the selected Farmers to minimize disturbance of farming operations by public use.
