| Primary Uses: | agriculture - farming |
The 145 acre Ebey/Laughtin Farm is located between Dixon and Davis on I-80, adjacent to the recently completed McConeghy Ranch acquisition. Together the two farms form the beginning of a permanent agricultural greenbelt between the two cities.
The property was acquired primarily for conservation of agricultural lands along the I-80 corridor between the two cities.
The fields have low habitat value as they are intensively farmed and virtually no native vegetation occurs on the site. There is no public access to the property although the property is adjacent to the north ramp of the Kidwell Road exit on I-80.
No special status species of concern have been sighted on the property although Swainson's Hawks may use the fields.
More common wildlife that can be sighted at various times of the year include songbirds, egrets, and crows.
