One of the founding members of Queen Creek is selling 13 acres to build rental housing.
Mark Schnepf, who helped lead incorporation efforts for Queen Creek and later became the town’s first mayor, is the co-owner of the highly popular Schnepf Farms.
Recently, he sold a small parcel of family land to developer Empire Group of Cos., which is working with Mark and Carrie Schnepf to develop a community that incorporates the farm’s attributes and history. The Village at Schnepf Farms will be at the northwest corner of Rittenhouse and Cloud roads. The community is under construction and targeted to begin leasing in late 2022.
