Magnus is our resident vegetable grower! He and his wife, Krissy, will be growing all the vegetables this season. They have a self-serve vegetable stand on their farm right off of HWY 25.
They also offer an Online Growers Market. Magnus and Krissy have created a Google Form listing all the available produce for that particular week. You fill it out and submit it. They, then pick, wash, and pack your veggies. You are welcome to pick your box up at the farm or deliveries are available too.
Many of our vegetables are grown on plastic, which allows them to offer you a clean product. They also use minimal chemicals and only do what is necessary to keep our plants healthy. They do not use any chemicals on our plants once they have produce on them.
Magnus and Krissy offer many different kinds of vegetables. Whether you like to can them, freeze them, pickle them, or just eat them fresh out of the field, we have plenty of veggie varieties. Of course, we depend on mother nature to provide us with the right growing conditions, so it is possible that we may not have everything we hope to grow.
This family was also awarded the "Farm Family of the Year" title for 2019!
