Description

  • A Story of Ducks, Deer, and a Legendary Farm in Craighead County for SALE

    This 104 +/- acre row crop farm, steeped in history, had been a treasure of the Griffin family since the 1960s. The Griffins, visionaries in their time, recognized the potential to transform traditional farming into a dual-income opportunity by merging row crop production with waterfowl hunting.  

    Positioned just east of North Arkansas’s most famous duck hunting clubs, this property is a rare gem. Located in Craighead County, it sits about 75 miles northeast of Memphis and only 8 miles southwest of Jonesboro, offering convenient access to some of Arkansas’s most coveted natural resources.


    The Land

    Out of the 104 +/-  acres, 80 +/- acres are tillable farmland with established farm rent, ensuring steady income for the owner. Surrounding the tillable fields are 10 +/- acres dedicated to a hot plot, perfect for ducks, and another 10 +/- acres of flooded green timber, making this a paradise for hunters.

    The 80 +/- acre field naturally floods on the north and south ends, creating a hotspot for goose hunting in the middle, which can be planted in rice or corn for maximum attraction. The flooded green timber is a dual-purpose haven—ideal for early buck season for deer hunters and transitioning into a premier duck hunting location later in the season.


    Top-Notch Hunting Features

    • Two pit blinds: Strategically placed for maximum waterfowl success.
    • Electric Subway System: Effortless operation with the push of a button, making the property user-friendly for any hunter.
    • 10 +/- Acre Hot Plot: A magnet for ducks and geese, customizable to rice or corn plantings for prime hunting conditions.
    • Flooded Green Timber: Perfect for bowhunting deer early in the season and ducks later on.


    Prime Location for Waterfowl Hunting

    The farm is surrounded by some of Arkansas's most celebrated wildlife resources:

    • Hurricane Lake WMA: Famous for its waterfowl management and incredible duck hunting.
    • Bayou DeView WMA: Offers flooded timber hunting for ducks and a variety of other wildlife opportunities.
    • Cache River NWR: A paradise for waterfowl enthusiasts with extensive wetlands and flyway activity.
    • Black Swamp WMA: Known for its challenging yet rewarding flooded timber duck hunting.
    • Bald Knob National Wildlife Refuge: A premier destination for waterfowl, located to the south.

    To the west, you’ll find the Cash and Black Rivers, and to the east, the St. Francis and Mississippi Rivers, positioning the farm in the heart of Arkansas’s premier waterfowl flyway.


    A Legacy and Opportunity

    This property is not just a farm—it’s a piece of history and an incredible opportunity. The Griffin family’s legacy of innovation in both farming and hunting continues to shine through in every acre of this land.
