Description
The Flying H Ranch has been a Legacy operation for over half a century in the Arapahoe/Holbrook Nebraska area. With family ties dating all the way back to the homestead days, improving cattle genetics has been the family legacy and business for many years. Dick and Bonnie Helms have decided to retire and sell the Flying H headquarters and heart of the operation. Their son Kyle and his family will continue the Flying H cattle genetics line and the family brand will continue on. The headquarters will soon be moving back to Kyles residence where the very original location all began years ago on Muddy Creek giving new buyers an opportunity to purchase a big portion of the East side of the Ranch. Generational operations like these only come around once a lifetime and American Legacy Land Company is proud to offer this ranch to potential buyers to expand on their own legacy.
The Ranch is located approximately 12 miles NW of Arapahoe NE. Directions to the property are: 7 miles north of Arapahoe to road 730 and 4 miles west to Road 420 then a mile back south to 728 Drive and half mile back east. Just a short drive from Arapahoe you will find a great opportunity for a fully operational ranch. This opportunity is available to be set up as a turnkey operation with additional equipment and personnel property available for purchase.
This area of Nebraska is known for high quality grass for cattle production along with very good water right over top of the Ogallala aquifer. Productive soils are also found here in this region for growing both irrigated and dryland crops to help produce feed for the livestock. Wildlife in this region has produced high quality whitetail and mule deer hunting through the years along with wild turkey, quail and pheasant species being prevalent throughout the area. Muddy Creek flows through one parcel of the ranch and provides a great year round natural water source and recreational opportunity. Available for purchase is a combination farm and ranch that includes Pastureland, Home, Shop Cattle facilities and pens as well as both irrigated and dryland farm ground acres.
