Sherburne resources:

lots of space and sun
decent soil
nice brook at the lower end
seasonal pond in the middle --could be dug out deeper
water not too far underground? need well drilled (< $2000)
harvesting a decent amount of wind energy should be possible

delicious blackcaps (purple canes)
willows along the brook for trellises, etc.
two real apples trees, near end-of-life stage
crabapples -- nice wood for BBQs
lots of poplars, some conifers, other mixed deciduous
1-2 cords of freshly-cut 16" length sugar maple rounds
occasional edible wild mushrooms (puffballs, other?)

lots of "edge" areas: around poplar stands, conifer treeline at 
edge of "cliff", wet area below cliff, brook's edge

challenges:
lots of blackberry brambles (maroon canes)
bullthistles down by the brook -- at the north, drier end of property
no naturally-good area to grow wild rice
