We will provide a box of the best tasting seasonal vegetables from the middle of June until the middle of October. Varieties and quantities will vary with the time of the year and the weather. Our produce is certified organic and sustainably grown. We are active in the Local Fair Trade Network. You can be sure that your CSA share will support your health as well as the health of our community. Our 18 week delivery season will provide you with an array of the most delicious, seasonal, certified organic produce this area has to offer. Plenty of heirloom varieties are grown to ensure that your meal-plan will never lack in color, flavor or an abundance of choices. We also offer additional produce (at additional cost) for families interested in canning, freezing, etc. to ensure that their diet is as local as possible year round. Shares available for pick up at the farm or a some local co-ops.

Riverbend Farm is a certified organic vegetable farm producing for Independent Local Restaurants, Natural Food Coops and our CSA in the Twin Cities area. We have been certified organic since 1994. Vegetables, beans, grains, and corn are produced in a four year rotation.

An important part of our rotation is cover cropping, green manures, and compost for our vegetable fields. Two years are spent building soil for a year of vegetable production. The second year of production is lots of beans and cover drop seeds. Some vegetables taht do not take a lot out of the soil are also grown. Every fall nearly all of out land is planted to rye and vetch cover crops. It is important to us to leave this farm in better condition than we found it - our grandchildren might want to farm here one day.
