If you have a small barn or build a 3 sided shelter, you could charge more. You could raise goats and then turn around and make goat cheese, milk, soap, etc. You could raise pakka's (sp?) and sell their hair. You could set up a field to be a solar collector and in turn have it power a water or such engine creating power. Power your house and sell the power to the electric company. Let the grass grow and pack it as hay. Up here in the north hay is rare right now and its going for premium dollar. Plant fruit, veggies, berries, etc and sell them at the local farmers market or be your own farmers market. I myself am trying to find 10-20 acres to do these very things. Your lucky... don't leave, city sucks. 38 yrs of city life... I've had my fill. Already got my horse... just need the land now.<br><b>References : </b><br>edit: Being a Native American Indian, and of Powhatan origin which is part of the SC area.

You should check with your local city/county government and find out. Is it zoned as commercial, residential, farm or resource land? Are there state or federal restrictions on what you can do with the land (i.e., potential wetland or wetland designation)? Once that's done, I would recommend that you talk to a land use planner about potential uses and also to an attorney to set up a company such as an LLC (limited liability company) and/or a trust to administer the use of the land. Once a piece of property is transferred to multiple heirs, it can be very difficult to keep a family member who wants to sell his or her share from doing so. Having an LLC or a trust could make it easier to keep the acreage intact.<br><b>References : </b><br> The first thing you need to do is make sure you understand how the land is zoned.

It may not make you money, but it will save you from paying high taxes. -Easements: Enter your land in an easement that basically sells development rights. You (and anyone who buys your land) wont be able to build any additional structures. But you will technically still own it, and it wont become a walmart. -Lease the recreation rights: Like an easement, except you sell the right to recreate on that land to hunting and fishing clubs (and the like).<br><b>References : </b><br> - Consult a forester: he can evaluate your situation and create a sustainable timber harvesting plan.

It depends on what kind of land it is. If there are pastures you can rent them out to farmers in the summer to allow them to keep their horses there, or you can divide it into plots and allow people to camp out or something.<br><b>References : </b><br> Renting it.
