Swan Land Company is pleased to announce the sale of Chesnut Valley Farm. This 1,068± deeded acres represent an opportunity to own solid irrigated farm land with reliable crop yields and extensive wing-shooting opportunities. Its healthy fields, coupled with abundant natural cover and acres of open water offer excellent wildlife habitat while maintaining the productivity of the existing agricultural operation.  Located in Cascade County’s most traditional agricultural locale, the Farm can be maintained as a very productive farming operation due in part to its abundant water resources and established water rights.

Located on the northwestern edge of the Colorado Plateau in Utah, there is evidence of Native Americans dating back 8,000 years.  In an area now known as Nine Mile Canyon, a Native American tribe known as the Fremont Culture made this their home as early as 300 A.D. This prehistoric culture, primarily hunters and farmers, utilized quite sophisticated methods including irrigation for farming.  By 700 A.D., villages had been established and the Fremont region flourished until around 1250 A.D.  It is thought that more aggressive Ute, Paiute and Shoshoni peoples that migrated to the area may have displaced the tribe or absorbed the Fremont into their own culture.
