No Stupid Questions

Couple ideas:

1. Sit on it. It'll just passively build value over time
2. See if any cell service providers want to setup towers. They provide passive income as well, monthly

Sell 1x1 foot squares of it in a vending machine at a random gas station in the middle of nowhere.

Serious answer. A outdoor area surrounded by casinos. Walking/biking areas only. You'll need investment from builders. But you build it, they will come.

Regenerative Agriculture / Permaculture

If you plan to lease out to a farmer, find one that won't fill it with herbicides and pesticides. And maybe look to only lease part of it while you work to recover other parts.

I'm looking to buy land that needs to be recovered and have the budget that will likely lead me to a place like this that doesn't have direct road access. Good luck!

Serious answer: maybe just describe your land details to like chatgpt and ask how you can make the land "economically productive"

I had a family member who owned land in the sticks. He said you can earn a passive income letting a farmer use it. He let a guy bail hay to sell.

Meanwhile, sit on it for 20-30 years. The land multiplied in value many times over. Eventually, it got sold to a development firm to build multiple neighborhoods after the nearby city continued to expand in that direction.

Try to grow fucks and then distribute them free of charge?

There are many people who want food grown in natural environments and where the animals are taken care of. A bit like Clarksons Farm on tv.

I couldn't tell you what to do with it but if I move to europe I will work on your commune and help with whatever as long as you'll have me lol

25 decares is a lot of land, you could have an entire city there. If the land is viable for farming you could allot enough of it to produce whatever you would need to sustain the population of the property, and have the rest of the place developed into living spaces and recreational areas like you said. A sports park, little golf course, botanical gardens, animal sanctuaries. Thats stuff for citizens to do besides meditate.

I mean, this is a real opportunity to create generational prosperity not just for you but for everyone who is involved in building it up. I hope that, whatever happens, you keep it safe from people who would see it turned into more wealthy suburbs or a cash crop operation that kills the soil in a generation.

Good luck to you on your journey and, again, I'd be thrilled to be a part of it

I thought you bought a picture at first

Any zoning issues? May be worth splitting it up, lease some for farming for now, set up a couple of acres for a small utility/living area so you can visit and stay for short periods or permanently so you can get a sense of actually being there... Seasons, smells, sounds, wildlife, infrastructure like roads will all impact what the experience or opportunities actually are and often bday depending on the time of year.

Ideas 1, 2, and 4 could come together with a permaculture food forest/farm. First task would be to cover crop the land to protect from soil loss and start replenishing some nutrients. Then, you have some time to make a good, phased plan of how you'd want to develop it.

Talk to experts and professionals whichever direction you take. They'll often save you much more than they cost.

If you would like to live there someday I would recommend that as your goal. I would recommend you start doing some research on permaculture which is about building wholly sustainability. Part of this sustainability is financial and piecewise building and investment. So if you want to build and live on this one day you will need the money for it.

So start with leasing the land for at least 1 year to get some cash and for you to better understand where you might want to build a structure and what you need. This allows you to plan and see what part would fit a dwelling the best. This also lets you figure out what you need for this house (i.e. water, electricity, waste removal etc.) as well as figure out how this investment can make money for you. Start small and build modularly. Your dwelling may start on as shack or even a place to set up a tent and grow larger. Same with whatever you end up doing with the land.

Permaculture talks about building food forests which are sustainable year round sources of food, goods or materials. Some of which you can sell or use yourself. These are typically perennial plants, vines and trees which all grow off each other and make a beautiful space. This can be your space for "remote working" either for yourself or visitors.

While planning on starting on this you can continue to lease your land to farmers as you slowly take it over yourself for your bigger vision. This is suppose to be small, slow but sustainable growth to your final vision.

Why is the village depopulated, if there's a huge industrial zone nearby presumably with lots of employees? I was thinking workers might want to buy or rent low cost housing near their workplace if the land is zoned for it and you could get electric and a well, then build some simple small housing. But if they're not buying in the village, might not be a great idea unless there's something wrong or lacking with available properties in the village.

What does VISA sponsorship require? Maybe you could setup a farm/agrarian business and offer VISA sponsorship for migrants. As an American, I'd consider becoming a farmer with the opportunity to become an EU citizen lol probably not easy to do for a reason though.

I feel like solar farming was a good suggestion from someone else. Maybe plant some trees if you're not keen on making it a farm. If you can get it zoned, you might be able to get investment for residential? Though public transportation is lacking, maybe you could be the start of a small apartment complex or something like that. Idk much about this kind of thing.

Plant something ASAP on that naked land or it will all be carried away by rain and wind.

If you're thinking yoga retreats etc, I'd consider building an Earthship or two first. They're totally eco-friendly, almost hobbit-like buildings. They fit the vibe and would give you a base of operations for future plans.
