PLEASE NOTE: Special statement about availability of eggs.

We want to thank you all for your interest in our farm fresh eggs. While we are happy to provide them at a reasonably low purchase price (now $5 per dozen), they are only available here on the farm, during our hours of operation (Friday Noon – 8pm, Saturday Noon – 8pm, Sunday Noon – 6pm) on a first-come-first-serve basis.

We appreciate your enthusiasm and support, however, we kindly request that you do not contact us to find out if eggs are available. Please understand that we have been flooded with phone calls, emails, facebook posts, and messages asking us if eggs are available, and we are just not able to return your phone calls, messages, emails, etc. Please also know that your posts on our facebook page asking this question will be deleted.

Eggs are available to our customers here at the farm on a first-come-first-serve basis during the hours we are open and while supplies last. We appreciate you, and we appreciate your understanding!

Saturday March 8th 10am – 4pm Maple Tree Tapping and Workers Lunch.

Join us for our annual spring tradition of maple tree tapping. It’s a fun day, tromping out in the woods, putting out 1,000 taps and buckets for the 2025 maple syrup season.

Be sure to dress for the weather, (layers are good) including sturdy boots that can get wet or muddy. We will post more specifically about apparel once we see the forecast.

Plan on a day of fresh air, and a good work out too. Everyone who helps us tap trees, haul and set the buckets and are willing to help out for a couple of hours will earn a free lunch of hot chili with all of the fixin’s!

Don’t worry, you don’t have to work the entire day 🙂 All we ask is for a couple hours of work, or for as long as you desire.

If you would like to just observe and see how taps are installed, you are welcome to do so, but we ask that you wait until the afternoon in order to give us the time to get the operation organized.

When you arrive, check in the cider barn where we will have you sign a waiver before going out into the woods.

While we love dogs, and dogs are always welcome anytime on the farm, for this event, dogs are not allowed. That includes our own two dogs.

As always, fun for the whole family.

What to do with your fresh bundle of ginger.

There is nothing more aromatic, tender, and delicious than freshly harvested, Minnesota grown, organic ginger. In the store you will usually find only the root, but the stalks and leaves are equally delicious.

First, don’t throw out the stalks and leaves as they are also edible. At minimum you can make some incredible ginger tea, but also use them sliced up and added to stir frys or used to infuse flavor into baked goods. The easist thing to do is to ask Chef Google “how to use ginger stalks and leaves” and you’ll find quite a nice list of fun ways to prepare it.

For the root, be sure to clean it well as the crevices to get full of dirt. Once cleaned, of course the root can be used in any way you like to use ginger. But if it is more than you can use up in about a week, you can just slice it up and freeze it into portions that work for you.

Thank you for supporting our farm and we hope that you will enjoy your ginger!
