Farm & Ranch Living

South Florida farm and ranch living afford the best of both worlds, with a laid-back rural lifestyle in proximity to the excitement of metropolitan and urban amenities, attractions, and services. Miami-Dade County has the most land available for farm and ranch living in South Florida. This makes sense since it is one of Florida’s ten largest counties with more than two thousand, four hundred square miles. Located in The Keys Region of southeast Florida, Miami-Dade’s primary agricultural staple is livestock farming, though there are certainly other kinds of farms and ranches in South Florida, too.

Farm and ranch living in South Florida include life on horse farms, hunting farms, recreational farms, waterfront farms, timber farms, and pasture farms. As an example of the kinds of communities in which you can enjoy a farm and ranch lifestyle in South Florida, Jupiter Farms comprises fifteen-square miles on the outskirts of Jupiter with easy access to the Florida Turnpike and Interstate 95. Jupiter Farms is an equestrian community with horse trails, small businesses, natural preserves, plant nurseries, and farm and ranch properties. Caloosa is another equestrian community worth mentioning, with three hundred and ten homes, almost all of which are alongside a canal affording beautiful views.

Beyond the many horse properties in South Florida, there is also grazing land, small organic farms, pasture land, and large arable farming acreage. While the average acreage size in South Florida is just over three acres, the average farm real estate is nearly sixteen acres in size.
