Abraham’s Table Farm is a small, sustainable farm producing organic vegetables, pasture raised soy-free eggs and chicken, and grass-fed beef. We service the Twin Cities Metro Area and Pine County with our CSA/subscription service. Our CSA is fully customizable each week, runs for 20 weeks and has multiple add-on options for eggs, chicken, and beef. We also provide both door delivery and drop-site pickup options. Shares are generous and geared towards people who are serious about cooking at home.

Owned by Joel and Megan Barr and growing on just 20 acres, our farm is truly a small family farm. We farm with a team of five, who are all paid livable wages. We are dedicated to soil health as a basis for deeply nutritious food that can build and sustain healthy human bodies. We choose to sell through a small and committed CSA program because we value the long term relationships and community that it nurtures. Because those relationships are so vital to the ongoing success of the farm, care of the Earth, and health of our bodies, we seek to produce consistent media content to update our members and provide regular opportunities for our community to visit and get involved on the farm.

Our farm is for people who are serious about nutrition, want to personally know their farm and farmer, and cook at home regularly.

Amador Hill Farm and Orchard is a certified organic vegetable and apple farm and a program of the Women’s Environmental Institute (WEI). Our farm is located in Almelund, Minn., and helps support and serve WEI’s educational mission. WEI is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit committed to agricultural, food, and environmental justice.

Becoming a CSA member helps support this mission by supporting the demonstration farm and educational programs. We offer three seasonal CSAs: Spring Greens (April 29-June 3), Peak Summer Gourmet (July 8-Aug. 26), and Autumn Bounty (Sept. 16-Oct. 21). We deliver all of our CSA shares on Fridays to drop-sites in the Twin Cities, North Branch, and Wyoming. CSA members get special invitations to the farm and are invited to become a part of the farm community. Workshare options, CSA pricing, drop-site list, and EBT/SNAP options can be found at the Amador Hill Farm website or by calling 651-583-0705.

For residents in the North Branch, Taylors Falls, and Cambridge area, check out the North Circle online website (www.northcircleonline.org); this is an east-central Minnesota online farmers’ market, which is another program of the Women’s Environmental Institute. The online market runs from June to October, providing a virtual market representing 12 different local farms committed to sustainable and organically certified farming practices.

We also grow farmers, gardeners, and others looking for sustainability, as well as environmental and farm-related classes. Check out our education program — Down to Earth: Sustainability and Justice Education.

Awlyahsi·yó· (awl-yah-SEE-yo) is a collaboration between two young farmers, Mallory and Lucas, along with youth apprentices who work and learn on our farm. We started farming together to honor the seeds we each have grown and been given so far. Between us, there are over 100 different varieties of vegetables, herbs, and flowers that we grow at our farm! Because we grow mostly from our own saved seeds, we’re excited to offer many unique varieties in our CSA that aren’t typically found anywhere else.

Every week we pass on stories of the amazing produce in your box, whether it’s a special variety from our own collection, or a little-known fact about a well-known food. You can visit our website for more details about types of CSA shares, Twin Cities Metro drop-off locations, customer testimonials, and pricing. There are also more details there about our growing practices. Not only are we certified organic, our produce goes above and beyond organic standards too. In addition to providing top tier produce, Awlyahsi·yó· offers apprenticeships for youth who are beginning their seed keeping journey. We provide emerging seed keepers with guidance, mentorship, and a safe place to grow with their seeds.

Awlyahsi·yó· is a word in Lucas’ native language of Oneida that means “good heart.” We feel that we need to have a good heart, a good mind, and a good spirit when we’re farming. Since talking with elder language speakers in his community, Lucas has found a more accurate way of saying “good heart.” That word is Yawelyahsi·yó· (Yah-well-yah-SEE-yo). In 2022, we plan to update our name to reflect that change and honor the language.

Axdahl’s Garden Farm and Greenhouse, a family owned and operated farm, is situated along the St. Croix River in Stillwater, Minn. Our farm market is located at 7452 Manning Avenue North in Stillwater. We practice sustainable farming, are long-time members of the Land Stewardship Project, highly involved with the NRCS’s Conservation Stewardship Program, and our operation is a Minnesota Water Quality Certified Farm.

We strive to protect the land and the bounty it provides. Our reward is soil rich in natural nutrients that provides mouth-watering produce. We are experienced growers and have been providing safe, pesticide-free produce to local distributors, restaurants, grocery stores, and the local community for several decades.

We have had a CSA program for many years. Over these years we have learned that flexibility is very important. The year 2022 marks the fourth year of our flexible CSA program. Our Flex CSA Program offers the following benefits:

• Partnership with Axdahl Farms, your local farm.
• Expanded time period to enjoy local produce. You’re not limited to just 18 weeks!
• Flexibility to get the quantities and varieties of produce that fit your needs and schedule. No set time or day to pick up a box!
• Ability to include flowering plants, veggies, herbs and more for your own personal gardens.
• Knowledge of where your food comes from.
• Ensuring the success of a local farm and the families we employ.
• Strengthening our local economy by keeping food dollars here.
• Sharing in the rewarding experience of being connected with your food, the land, and the farmer.

When you sign-up, you’ll receive a prepaid gift card good for everything we offer at our farm market in Stillwater, including our delicious seasonal produce. CSA members will also share in our bounties when we have extra sweet corn and/or other goodies.

Weather permitting, May starts out our season with asparagus, fresh herbs and lettuces as well as other greenhouse/high tunnel grown produce. April and May means bedding plants, and veggie and herb plants. Summer veggies include sweet corn, green beans, zucchini, and yellow squash, cucumbers, tomatoes, sweet and hot peppers, and more. Fall brings pumpkins (including our Pick-Your-Own Patch!), winter squash, Brussels sprouts and more. The Christmas season becomes a winter wonderland at Axdahl’s. You can use your CSA membership card for fresh cut trees, garland, custom decorated wreaths, and other holiday décor.

Big River Farms is a certified organic food hub, operated by The Food Group, a 501(c)(3) nonprofit. Our mission is to build a sustainable food system based on social, economic, and environmental justice through education, training, and community partnerships. We aggregate produce grown by beginning farmers who face discrimination in food and farming systems and are enrolled in our land-based education program.

As a CSA member, you’ll support BIPOC (Black, Indigenous & people of color) and New American (immigrant and refugee) farmers and our food justice mission. Our CSA operates 18 weeks from mid-June through mid-October. We offer certified organic vegetables in two share sizes: full shares (¾ bushel) and half shares (½ bushel).

These veggie shares are both delivered once a week over the 18-week CSA season. Half shares contain 5-7 different produce items each week, suitable for 1-2 people, while full shares contain 10-12 items, suitable for 3-5 people.

We also offer two types of certified organic, locally grown fruit shares sourced from two farm partners in nearby Wisconsin and Minnesota. Fruit shares can be purchased separately, or as add-on options during the CSA sign-up process. Subsidized shares for EBT-SNAP customers are also available through our partnership with FairShare CSA Coalition (up to 75% off the total cost): https://www.csacoalition.org/partner-shares.

We make CSA deliveries once-a-week on Wednesdays to the drop-site of your choice in and around the Twin Cities Metro, including 13 different locations throughout Minneapolis, Saint Paul, Roseville, New Hope, White Bear Lake, Stillwater, and Marine on St. Croix.  Additional drop-site information, CSA pricing, and online purchase and payment options (such as monthly installments and EBT/SNAP), can be found at: https://www.harvie.farm/profile/big-river-farms.

Blackbrook Farm is a certified organic, diversified family farm. We grow vegetables and herbs for a 100-member CSA, direct online farmstand sales, and local farm-to-table restaurants. We also raise pastured hogs for pork, Scottish Highland cattle for beef and certified organic broiler chickens.

Our 140-acre farm is located 60 miles outside of the Twin Cities in Amery, Wis. As organic farmers, our practices include using cover crops, green manures, crop rotations, and animal manures. We never use chemical fertilizers, fungicides, or pesticides. We believe strongly in building our soils for the generations to come. We offer a Customized CSA for both our Summer and Fall Shares. When you sign-up for a CSA with our farm, we will create a customized box based on your preferences. You will be able to view, change, swap and add products for others that are available. For example, don’t like eggplant? You can give it a low score and never see an eggplant in your box. Love carrots? You can swap more for a different crop you don’t want or also add-on more to your order.

We offer full- and half-share options to our members. Our boxes start in mid-June and run weekly or bi-weekly for 16 weeks. Our Fall Share is a 2- or 4-week share extension. We grow many crops, including everything from tomatoes and potatoes and fresh herbs to carrots, spinach, broccoli, strawberries, and sweet corn. We also offer a locally-grown and harvested Mushroom Share add-on and weekly pastured pork, organic chicken, and grass-fed beef, as well as local honey add-ons.

We deliver our CSA boxes on Thursdays to many Twin Cities and surrounding area locations, including Stillwater and western Wisconsin (you can find this information on our website under our CSA information) and also offer on-farm pickup. In addition to your produce, you will receive a weekly e-newsletter with updates from the farm, pictures, recipes, the contents of the box, and what is to come the following week. Find the 2022 sign-up form and what our CSA is all about at http://blackbrookfarmstead.com/signup.

For 2022, we will be focusing once again on our Farmers’ Market Shares. Like a traditional CSA, our members pay ahead for their season’s vegetables. Unlike a traditional CSA, our members attend the farmers’ market when they want, and take home only the vegetables that they choose. This works with a prepaid account, which comes in three amounts. With each level, members receive an additional value to their share. If you do not attend the market any given week, then no value is lost on your account and any unused credit rolls over to the following season!

Members receive a weekly newsletter with recipes and specials. We attend three markets in Minneapolis on Saturdays: Mill City Farmers’ Market (downtown Minneapolis), Northeast Minneapolis Farmers’ Market, and the Midtown Farmers’ Market (South Minneapolis). On Sunday mornings, we attend the Saint Paul Farmers’ Market (downtown Saint Paul). To see what we grow, when it is available, and our market price list, please visit the farm website.

Country Taste Farm uses Integrated Pest Management and Sanidate 5.0 produce wash and disinfectant. Most food-borne illnesses are caused by E. coli, listeria, and salmonella. Sanidate has been proven to reduce 99.9% of these pathogens. Produce is grown using plastic mulch for weed protection and drip irrigation. We have four high tunnels which protect the plants from frost, hail, and cool weather to give a longer growing season. We continue to build our soil using a base of natural turkey fertilizer to increase soil organic matter and microbial activity. We add the missing elements to the soil to help us grow farm fresh, nutritionally dense, tasty fruits and vegetables.

Farm Farm CSA is a chemical-free produce farm that was founded in 2011. We provide shares to over 200 members from early June to the end of December. CSA is the backbone of our farm and our members receive the best produce that we grow. With over ¼ of an acre of greenhouses and high tunnels (12.5% of our production space), we are able to grow produce extra early and extra late in the season, resulting in each delivery having a great variety of high-quality produce.

Every effort is taken to ensure that our soils are well balanced with high fertility so your food is as nutrient-dense as possible. With only 2 acres in production, we rely on intensive and human scaled production techniques. In order to maintain high quality, biologically active soils, we employ no-till practices, compost is used to meet much of the fertility needs of the farm, and we never ever use chemicals!

We have Full Shares and Half Shares available for both the summer and winter season for a total of 26 weeks of CSA. Our pick-up locations are in Minneapolis (E. Lake Dogwood Coffee Co., Seward Friendship Co-op), Minnetonka (Lakewinds Co-op), Long Lake (Harvest Moon Co-op), Delano (Lupine Brewery), Buffalo (Abundant Kitchen), and Princeton (at the farm).

Open Hands Farm is a 20-acre certified organic CSA farm located just two miles north of Northfield, Minn. We think that healthy food should not be a luxury, and that a CSA share is an inexpensive way to enjoy organic vegetables and fruit.

We also offer an abundant u-pick section (for shareholders only). The u-pick includes strawberries, peas, beans, herbs, cherry tomatoes and flowers, and is well-loved by people of all ages. U-pick crops are usually available on a take-what-you-can-use basis, and are a great opportunity for fresh eating, freezing, canning, and/or drying. We aim to have more than enough food available for our shareholders. The leftovers from CSA pick-ups are donated to the local food shelf in order to share this fresh, nutritious food with our friends and neighbors in need.

We believe in growing food sustainably and creating community around food, and have been happily farming here since 2006.

Because Real Food delivers year-round, in the non-growing season we source certified organic produce from Co-op Partners Warehouse, a wholesaler that serves dozens of food co-ops and restaurants in the Twin Cities Metro and beyond. Real Food includes recipes each week featuring one or more items from the Bounty Bag and also hosts a monthly blog containing a variety of food-related information.

Shepherd Moon Farm is located on 50 acres in the St. Croix River Valley. We are a family-run and female-operated farm committed to caring for the Earth, creating a vibrant local community, and developing the local economy. Our stewardship practices include growing vegetables free of chemicals using crop rotations, limited tillage, green manures, animal manure, and mulching. In 2017, Julie’s mother, who started the CSA 13 years ago, passed the farm down to Julie. As the owner and operator, this is Julie’s 6th season growing food on the land she grew up on.

Main season shares run for 17-18 weeks, June through October. A full-share is a bushel each week and feeds a family of four. Half-shares are a half-bushel every week — great for a family of two. There are options for additional shares as well — fall shares in November and December, spring shares in April and May, and add-on boxes for processing vegetables throughout the main season. We offer a sliding scale fee to make fresh produce available to everyone. Pick-up is on Thursdays. You can come to the farm to pick-up your share or pick- up in the Midtown Phillips neighborhood in Minneapolis. We grow a large variety of produce with 8 to 18 different vegetables, herbs, and occasional berries available each week.

We have a work requirement so our members can become more familiar with the farm. Come share in the experience of planting, growing, and harvesting by visiting the farm!

We also offer u-pick crops at no extra cost — come pick fresh flowers, peas, green beans, herbs, etc., any day of the week. Sign up for just our main-season CSA (June-October) or add on a storage share CSA (mid-October to early December)! We offer reduced-price shares, working share memberships, and we accept SNAP/EBT.

A cooperative of small Amish organic farms near Woodville, Wis., delivering to the Twin Cities weekly.

StrongHeart Farms is a 2-acre mixed vegetable farm located in the St. Croix River Valley, just north of Stillwater, Minn. This is our second year in operation and we will be offering a Summer CSA membership AND a Fall CSA membership. We will be delivering our CSA shares to multiple drop-sites across Stillwater, St. Paul, and Minneapolis.

All of our produce shares are pre-packed and pre-determined based on the crops we have in abundance and in season. We offer both small and large produce shares; our small shares contain 6-8 veggies per week and our large shares contain 8-10 veggies per week.

Our farm is rooted in the idea of reciprocity. We base many of our farming practices in the give-and-take relationships we have with our food, our soils, and our community. This mission grounds us and has allowed us to implement many regenerative practices on our farm. We never apply any chemicals, we support our plants and the soil microbiota with compost and compost teas, and we plant a diverse array of crops to maintain a healthy ecological system. We also use an intensive cover cropping system to return organic matter back to the soil. All of these practices allow us to raise the most nutrient-dense produce possible so we can nourish our community to the fullest.

TapRoute Urban Gardens is a small market garden in South Minneapolis offering fresh, seasonal produce at farmers’ markets, online, and through our CSA.

Becoming a member is easy. Just tell us the kinds of foods you like (or don’t like) and every month we will make recommendations for you based on that. Then you can add to the recommendations. Remove things. Change things around so you get exactly what you want each time. What you get in each delivery is totally up to you.

We have home deliveries for $4.99 and monthly neighborhood pick-up locations (nearly 80!)  across the greater Twin Cities area).  Going to be out of town for a month or two? We also make it simple to skip deliveries until you are back.

We have yearly farm tours, special events for our members, and more.
