Products
Other than driving to the farm, farmer's markets and CSA's are the easiest way to get all of our products.
We are at two farmer's markets on Saturdays.
- Mill City Farmer's Market, where we are the first vendors inside the Train Shed.
- Rochester Downtown Farmer's Market, where we are right in the middle!
Our CSA shares can be custom tailored to meet your eating habits. Need more veggies? We can add half a share. Want a specific cheese each week? Not a problem.
Beef is available as a CSA share or as quarters, halves or whole. Everything is custom processed to suit your needs. Sold by the hanging weight. Processing costs vary based on how you have the meat cut and packaged, but usually run from $0.50 to $0.75 per pound. Delivery may be extra.
Quarters $2.40/lb Halves $2.25/lb Whole $2.00/lb
Wild rice hand-harvested by our friend, Larry Gates. This is the best wild rice you will ever eat. I am not exaggerating! I wasn't a wild rice fan until I had this. Larry's rice is a great compliment for so many of our vegetables, cheese, beef and eggs, so we decided to make it available to you, too. we can bring it to the farmer's market or we can ship it. Use our contact form for ordering. $12.75/lb
winter CSA Shares
Community-supported agriculture (CSA) is a relatively new model of farming and food distribution. A CSA consists of a community of individuals who pledge support to a farm operation with the growers and consumers providing mutual support and sharing the risks and benefits of food production. CSA’s focus is usually on a system of weekly delivery or pick-up of vegetables and fruit, sometimes dairy products and meat. The term CSA is mostly used in the USA , but a variety of similar production and economic sub-systems are in use worldwide.
Growing fresh vegetables in the heart of a frigid Minnesota winter may seem to be either an hallucination or a very expensive proposition, but on Prairie Hollow Farm it is a very energy efficient reality. Relying only on the sun’s energy and a double layer of plastic, we can store enough heat in the ground to grow cool season crops like lettuce, spinach, radishes, beets, carrots, pac choi, turnips , cabbage and more.
You can partner with us and enjoy the benefits of our labor by purchasing a Community Supported Agriculture (CSA) share.
Every other week you will receive a box full of whatever is ready to eat. In addition to the cool season crops from the hoop houses, you will receive some of the fall storage crops like onions, potatoes, squash, etc.
You also have the option of adding to your box with our bread, cheese and eggs.
Deliveries are made to one of our drop points. You pick it up from there!
