The Ely Times: “Hemp Farm Planning to Expand Operations”
Tracey Seville, co-owner of Silver Lion Farms, gave an update to the White Pine County Commission at a recent meeting about its hemp operation
The biggest highlight Seville pointed out was the amount of parcels Silver Lion Farms purchased. It originally bought two parcels, the Lages north and south, which totaled to about 1,800 acres. Halfway between Ely and Lages is the second half of the property, that was 2,200-2,300 acres, and a third parcel was purchased, that is contiguous to the second parcel, so they are up towards 3,000 acres of land.
The land purchased had been growing certified organic alfalfa previously, and the third parcel had not been growing anything.
