About Farm and Nursery Properties in Lake County
Lake County sits at the convergence of two powerful growth forces: the Orlando metro's northward expansion and The Villages' southward reach. This dual growth dynamic creates a compelling farm and nursery market with opportunities spanning the county's diverse geography from the rolling hills of Clermont to the lakefront communities of Leesburg and Tavares.
Lake County's farm and nursery market bridges the citrus heritage of its past with the horticulture-driven present. While devastating freezes in the 1980s ended much of the county's citrus production, the industry pivoted to container nurseries, ferneries, and specialty crop operations that thrive in the same sandy, well-drained soils. The Apopka-Zellwood corridor just south of the county line remains one of Florida's most productive nursery regions, and operators in southern Lake County benefit from proximity to this established supply chain. Farms along SR 19 and CR 48 produce hay, cattle, and specialty crops for local and regional markets. The county's position on Florida's Turnpike provides efficient freight access to both Central and South Florida landscape and construction markets.
