We are two people, with lots of help from employees, friends, and family, living a dream of feeding our community the freshest, most nutritious produce possible. We aim to grow food in the most ecologically and economically sustainable ways possible, on a small farm located 2 miles north of downtown Northfield, MN, off of Hwy 3. We grow over 270 varieties of vegetables, fruits, flowers and herbs. Many of the varieties we grow are heirloom or open-pollinated cultivars, and are always harvested and handled to maximize freshness, flavor, and nutritional value.
