My family and I could not have been more pleased with our first year as crop share participants! In addition to the weekly bounty that was always so plentiful and fresh, the weekly communications via email and video were both delightful and informative! My children became more conscientious and avid consumers of healthy foods and my husband and I enjoyed the well- guided food adventure with weekly recipes for each-and-every item in the share. Each week everything was so well organized! I highly recommend this farm!!!

Absolutely the best organic produce around. Always fresh and delicious! The value is well worth joining this CSA. My husband and I buy a half share and it is always more than enough for the week. During canning season I buy a couple bushels of tomatoes because Park Ridge grows the best tomatoes. The staff is very easy to work with and are always on hand during pick up at the farm to answer questions and assist you. I like that they work with other local businesses and farms to really strengthen the sense of community. I highly recommend this organic farm.

Robyn has been my mentor assigned to me through MOSES, the Midwest Organic Sustainable Educational Services organization, and MOSA - the certifying agency which they utilize to Earn the Organic Certification.

Robyn and her Dad do a fantastic job, and are wonderful people to know and deal with. They are willing to share their knowledge, and their time. The farm is a model to emulate and is a clear example of what happens when someone finds passion in their life for wholesome food grown fresh and local.

I hope to someday be as able a farmer as Robyn, even though I have farmed as a dairy farmer for 15 years using conventional methods. The organic method is much more in tune with nature, and better satisfies our hunger for what is good for our bodies. If more people are able to realize this and practice it either by growing their own or using farms like Robyn's and our own Fraser Farm - GrowSureEase farm in the city of Ripon, WI, I truly believe we can have a huge impact on improving the health of our nation and hugely reduce our health care costs!

Keep up the GREAT work Robyn!

What a great place to take a group of Culinary Arts students! The Calvey's are super nice people, and I enjoyed Robyn's lecture on the ins and outs and operation of the farm. The farm is very well kept and organized. It made me so motivated to get my vegetable garden going!! I look forward to visiting you all very soon. Thank you from all the students and staff of MPTC!!
