Description

Living Land Farm is a vegetable farm located 3 miles east of St. Peter in the terraces of the Minnesota River Valley. We are a CSA farm that also sells wholesale to the St. Peter Food Co-op and to River Rock Coffee in St. Peter. We grow primarily vegetables, but we did grow watermelons and cantelope in 2010 and plan on putting strawberries, raspberries, blueberries, apples and pears into the ground this year for harvests in the following years. We also grow some annual herbs with plans on expanding these this year to include more perennial herbs. The farm will be run full time by Adam Ellefson with much additional summer help from Lupita. She teaches spanish in nearby Cleveland, MN and fortunately her time off dovetails nicely with the busy time on the farm.

Living Land Farm is a Community Supported Agriculture (CSA) farm which creates a partnership between a farm and members.  The members provide financial support to the farm by purchasing a share at the beginning of the growing season.  In return, the farm provides fresh, locally grown produce throughout the growing season.

At Living Land Farm, our goal is to be a shining example of how a farm can be ecologically sustainable, economically viable, and provide healthy organic food for the local community.  Our farm will be a place for everyone to learn about how humans fit into their environment in a healthy, positive, and productive way.
