A hobby farm is a small-scale farm where the primary goal is lifestyle rather than large-scale profit. Whether it’s raising chickens, growing organic vegetables, or keeping bees, hobby farms offer a unique way to embrace country living while staying close to modern conveniences.
In Central Ohio, we’re seeing an increasing number of buyers interested in rural properties that provide space, self-sufficiency, and an escape from city life. Whether you're looking to buy a hobby farm or thinking about selling one, there’s never been a better time to explore your options.
✅ Desire for Sustainable Living – More people are looking to grow their own food, raise livestock, and reduce reliance on commercial supply chains.
✅ Space and Privacy – With larger lots, hobby farms offer peace, quiet, and plenty of room to spread out.
✅ Investment Potential – As demand for rural properties grows, owning a small farm can be a solid real estate investment.
✅ Income Opportunities – Many hobby farmers sell fresh produce, honey, eggs, or flowers at local markets.
If you're considering purchasing a hobby farm in Central Ohio, here are a few key factors to keep in mind:
🔹 Zoning and Land Use Laws – Not all rural properties allow for livestock, so checking local regulations is essential.
🔹 Water and Soil Quality – If you plan to garden or raise animals, you’ll want to ensure the land is suitable.
🔹 Outbuildings and Fencing – Barns, coops, greenhouses, and fencing can make your farm dreams a reality. I could do a whole series on coops! So many options.
🔹 Accessibility and Location – Many buyers want to be within commuting distance of Columbus while enjoying the benefits of country living.
