Fruit trees, asparagus plots, multiple garden plots, a small wetland area, and many other native grasses and plants native to Iowa surround the home on these 1.6+/- acres on the east edge of Toledo, Iowa. Everyone should feel good walking this acreage, but the true value will be appreciated by those with similar appreciation for sustainability and minimal impact.
