While the listing by Biederman Real Estate does not disclose the asking price, the sale of Siena Farm has been a bittersweet process for the team. As Ryan Smith expressed:
“Preparing to sell the farm has been very difficult for us all, but the process and marketing material has reminded us how grateful and proud we are to have played a part in building this farm under Anthony’s vision.”
