Looking for Rural Land used/ Ideas

[Brandon Breaux]

Looking to brainstorm ideas for rural land outside of; mobile home park, subdivision, storage unit, boat storage.

Other activities could potentially include traditional camping, glamping, non-traditional camping (i.e. allowing campers to camp with dogs off-leash), allowing dog clubs to meet on the property for competitions for a fee, hunting, building a tiny house community, build a solar or wind farm, drive-in movie theater, paintball course, etc.

Depending on the landscape, someone might be interested in leasing the land for raising livestock, doing a livestock show, performing environmental research for state/federal grants, etc. You might also be able to connect with a company like PODS that simply needs lots of vacant land for storage (I've never heard of anyone necessarily doing this, but figure it can't hurt to ask). I don't know if Rest Stops are profitable or not, but if your land is on a highway, then that's another idea.

I've also seen folks put up drive-thru light displays around the holidays, but there's no reason you couldn't do something for each "holiday". You could do an adult beer hunt instead of an easter egg hunt (everyone brings a 6-pack and $10, one group hides another groups beers, then everyone takes their empty 6-pack container to "hunt" for their favorite 6 beers). In that scenario, you could make money selling the 6-packs of beer, AND the $10 entry fee. You could possibly do something Irish/beer-related for St Patrick's Day, sell/shoot fireworks around New Years, etc., host an Oktoberfest party in September...
