About This Lot
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 havenideal for early buck season for deer hunters and transitioning into a premier duck hunting location later in the season.
