Moss Farm
Location
The Moss Farm is located in southwestern Archer County along the South Fork of the Little Wichita. It is about a 10-minute drive from Olney and a 20-minute drive from Archer City. The ranch is also within a 2-hour drive of the DFW metroplex.
Water
The South Fork of the little Wichita bisects the farm and it basically separates the tillable ground on the east from the pasture to the west. There are three ponds on the property, and rural water supplies the home.
Wildlife
The Moss Farm provides all of the essentials for wildlife; food, water and cover. Surface water includes the three ponds and the creek which will hold water in the deeper cuts during the wet season. The winter wheat crop pulls in Whitetail deer, hogs and turkeys. The turkeys also frequent the homestead where they feed on the acorns and pecans dropped by the large oak and pecan trees located around the farmhouse.

Property Summary
The same family has owned this property for a little over one hundred years. The property has traditionally been farmed for winter wheat. The farming is leased at this time and is a possible source of agricultural income. The farm contains about 35 acres of tillable ground with the remainder being pasture. The Moss Farm also has great recreational opportunities, from fishing the ponds with the kiddos to hunting opportunities for Whitetail deer, hogs and turkeys.
