December 15 Farm Updates

We are wrapping up the year with the very tail ends of our apples left in the farm store (and appearing in Winter Wellness CSA), greens and the chickens laying about 2 eggs a day. It feels like a real Minnesota winter with the cold, snow, sledding (and chickens laying 2 eggs a day). I love it.

Stop into the farm store for Christmas gifts and more!! Last day to shop Friday, December 19th.

Closed December 21-31. 

Text Brooke for appointments & inquiries during this time, and watch the socials for updates. Greens will be available also at Winter Markets and Graze Coop.

Mankato Market Schedule

Find us at the Winter Mankato Farmers' Markets 9am - 12:00pm, 1st & 3rd Saturdays through March!
