Elsewhere Farm

Elsewhere Farm Elsewhere Farm is a forty acre organic permaculture farm on the South Shore of Lake Superior.

This site follows the happenings at Elsewhere Farm along with selected posts about wider issues of sustainable food systems, thriving local economies, regenerative agriculture, and food policy. The farm features perennial fruits, market veggies, eggs from Icelandic, rare breed chickens, pork from rare breed, pastured pigs, and a winter CSA which runs from December through March. We have a summer CSA from June through October and a ten week Summer Saturday punch card for produce shares.

Now through February 15th, we are having a summer CSA share sale! Get the 20 week 2025 summer shares for 2024 prices! $720 gets you weekly, home-delivered shares from June through mid-October: As always, you can also donate

--Elsewhere Farm Capital Investment Fund (goes to long-term physical improvements):$20 to $100

Other Treats: You can also relish fresh herbs, sprouts, eggs from our own farm (raised with 100% organic grain and on full pasture!), and occasional pickled products.

CSA members have made a significant contribution to our farm's resilience over the years, and I am proud to say that we are now in a better position than ever before to handle frostdroughtfloodshailwindssnowsmokebugsdisease and probably a lot else I haven't even thought of. I am so grateful to everyone.

The share prices will go up for the 2025 season... I was just doing my seed order, and seeds alone have tripled in price in the last two years (and I continue to redesign the farm so we can save more and more of our own seed!). So sign up now to get the best deal!

Some upcoming highlights of the 2025 season:
-- we are trialing hot peppers this year!
--we will continue to partner with Abby at Suri Fina for some June produce, late summer tomatoes, and sprouts throughout the season.
--we are replacing the loss of Happy Hollow Creamery with more veggies and fruit
--we will continue to have eggs in most deliveries
--we are continuing to expand our potatoes, so if we can manage the water this season (drought wiped out our crop last year) we hope to get potatoes into the summer shares

Happy New Year!

Farming friends! Just a couple of days left to get early bird pricing for the Marbleseed conference! So much new energy in this event in the last couple of years.... I always learn something new.

The Marbleseed Conference offers knowledge for all experiences from organic and sustainable farmers, homesteaders, food policy advocates and more.

It’s impressive to see what healthy soil can do. This 4 by 60 foot bed of kale generated near weekly bunches for our summer csa all season… about forty with all our share options. This garden plot is powered by our chickens: bedding from the winter coop from 23-24 will feed the garden in 2025. This is how we can feed 40 families in the summer and 15 families in the winter on quarter acre of market garden. It also means we never need to use heavy machinery on our soils…. We cultivate and harvest by hand.
