We’re One of 100!

This past season we were one of approximately 100 farms that participated in a research project with the University of Minnesota looking at soil characteristics within high tunnels and in their fields. This newsletter I’ll discuss their findings and where our farm falls in the study.

No-brrr November

What does one do on a vegetable farm in Minnesota in November? Find out in this week’s Farm News. But first a couple of announcements. For all those wondering if they can pop their popcorn let me tell you that I popped some last weekend with excellent results. Your mileage may vary but I think […]

The Season is Over

As you can tell by the weather — if not the many reminders from past newsletters — the season is over. I hope you enjoyed it as much as I did! Actually I hope you enjoyed it much more than I did; that is just how unselfish I am! We are still taking orders for […]

Garlic Planting

We are planning on planting garlic on Saturday, October 21 from 1:00 until done. Yea, I know you’ve heard this before but this time I mean it! We could use all the help we can get. And for those who like to help a lot or can’t make it on Saturday but have plenty of […]

This Season’s Experiment

It might be a sudden announcement so try to keep your schedule clear for the next two weeks! Two more weeks in this season. Please plan accordingly. We’re still taking orders for 2024. Thank […]

Garlic Planting Rescheduled

Due to rain and wet soil conditions, the 2023 Garlic Planting Gala is postponed and will not be held on Saturday, October 7th. Instead, we are hoping for a week of unseasonably warm, dry weather so that we can try again on Saturday October 14th at 1:00! Please change your calendars and I look forward […]

Go Away!

I’m not sure how people got the impression that last week was the last week of the season but it is not. We plan to give out produce for another four weeks (including this one). The season cannot end until the Brussels sprouts are delivered. And they don’t get tasty until they survive a frost […]
