History on the farm:
Bob Buckelew and his wife Clara purchased this property in 1954 after they had been leasing it for several years to farm cotton. Over the years, Bob and his wife gifted the property to their children, Nick Buckelew and his sisters. Portions of the original property were sold to the City of Tucson to retire water rights. Nick and his wife Laurie purchased the 85 acre property south of the highway during the 1980s, along with the 500 acre property sold to the County in 2002. The Buckelew family has owned and operated the Bucks-Kin Farm since 1954 and has a special tie to the land of the Altar Valley. Like many families in the Altar Valley, the Buckelews have worked the land for generations and developed close ties to it. Nick Buckelew’s father has strong beliefs about conservation that underpinned the process to protect the farm.
