Super Super High Quality!! In this offering is some of the richest land ever available in a fantastic area in Cherokee County. This land has been in the Leo Kauffman Family and Heirs possession for decades and has proven to be a top producing piece for all who have operated it. Long-time tenants who are known for taking good care of the land and keeping it in a high state of fertility only strengthen the value of the land itself. These 2 farms are absolutely as good as anything in Cherokee county and only ½ mile East of the Plymouth County line.
