Founded in the summer of 2011, Farm Farm consists of 2 acres lovingly grown by Heather Lewin and Jimmy Bauman at our farm in Princeton, MN.  We met in 2009 while living in Chicago, and wanted to build a better life together in a way that was good not only to us, but also the community and the environment. Organic farming encompasses all that we want to do in a way that encourages our creativity and leaves us feeling fulfilled at the end of the day.

We use organic methods but are not certified organic. With our small acreage and diversity it is possible to maintain a thriving garden without synthetic chemicals and fertilizers. Plus it tastes better! Since diversity is so integral to sustainability, we specialize in cultivating a wide spectrum of varieties (100 plus!) many of them heirlooms. We will be observing these cultivars season to season to find the most delicious and vigorous crops to grow; an enjoyable & worthwhile exploration.

Soil health is our focus since a living soil translates to quality produce.  We practice no till and low till cultivation techniques and pay close attention to soil fertility so your produce is as nutrient dense as possible.  With our heated and unheated tunnels, we are able to push the seasonality of what can be grown in Minnesota.

CSA subscriptions are instrumental in allowing us the freedom to farm. We bring our CSA shares to the Twin Cities, West Metro, North Metro, and sell at local Farmer’s Markets.  We’re incredibly grateful to all of you who choose local over convenience.  We are excited for the future of local and organic agriculture, and we are thrilled to be your farmers!
