Help us find another farmer(s) that would like to buy our farm and continue stewarding this land! Our farm has been managed organically for over 20 years and has the infrastructure and markets set up for produce, plants, and/or livestock. We would love to find someone with previous organic farming experience who would like to continue to manage this land organically.

Howdy all! We have some big news to share. After farming for the past 23 years, we are ready to "retire" as Loon Organics farmers. We have been farming since college and it has been a wonderful, challenging, nourishing, hard, and creative journey. Sometimes all of that in just one day! It is time for us to pursue other meaningful work.

The biggest THANK YOU to our customers and cheerleaders that supported us through our CSA, Mill City Farmers Market, wholesale accounts, farm-to-school, and food shelf. And a HUGE THANK YOU to our dedicated employees, volunteers, and work shares over the past 20 years. We are so grateful to know you all. Please keep buying local and advocating for local food farmers. We need your support now more than ever as federal funding to support organic farms, conservation farming practices, and beginning farmers are frozen/slashed.

We are figuring out the next steps for our farm, with the intention that another energetic farmer can take what we've built and run with it. Stay tuned!

Our online plant store is ready for pre-orders!! https://loon-organics.localline.ca/shop The first seeds will be seeded in the greenhouse this week, and plants will be ready for pickup May 11, 18, or 25 at our farm. There is a $10 minimum order, and you can either pay at time of ordering or select to pay by cash/check when you pick up your plants. Please message, email or text us if you have any questions about plants. All the plants are certified organic, and the varieties are ones we use on our own farm. Check out the "class" tab for a garden class on May 11! (You'll have to check out separately for the garden class if you want to order plants and sign up for the class). THANK YOU so much for your support!

Our online plant store will be open in early March for plant pre-orders: organic herb, produce, and some annual/edible flowers! We will post the link to our store when it goes live in March. Pick-ups will be on Saturdays in May at our farm. We are hoping to offer a few garden classes in May too: stay tuned! After 18 years of running our CSA, we are taking a break to focus on wholesale and farm-to-school accounts. We should have extra tomato, salsa, kale, and pesto preserving shares available throughout the season in our store as well. Thanks for all your support as our business evolves. 2024 will be Loon Organics' 20th year in business!!
