“The Roy & Wanda Swanson Farm”
November 6, 2025 – 10:30 am
Auction Location: AmericInn-Chamberlain Conference Center
Owners: Barry, Craig, and Kim Swanson
It is with great pride and enthusiasm we bring the Swanson Farm to public auction on behalf of Barry, Craig & Kim Swanson.
After nearly 125 years of continuous family ownership, this highly productive, well-located 999.4± acre farm will be offered to the public in five tracts. Situated just 1.5 miles west of SD Highway 50-south of Pukwana, SD, the property features strong soil ratings, a well-kept home, shop, equipment shed, grain storage, and convenient access along the county gravel road. Nearly contiguous, the five tracts form a cohesive unit, making this one of the most attractive land offerings we’ve ever had the privilege to represent.
While all tracts are top-tier farmland, Tract 5 includes 101.4 acres of Red Lake within its 199.4-acre footprint—an area with limited agricultural value but intriguing potential for sportsmen, waterfowlers, or outdoor enthusiasts seeking recreational ground.
This auction offers opportunity across the spectrum—from serious row crop growers to livestock operators, and those looking to pair farming with rural lifestyle or habitat access.
Don’t miss this chance to own a legacy property with scale, location, and unmatched potential.
Purchaser can farm & operate the land in 2026!
