Wholesome Food for Our Local Community
Pine Island Free Farm produces fresh fruits and vegetables to the local community in Southeast Minnesota. The farm is located in Olmsted County, just outside the city limits of Pine Island, MN, and less than 30 minutes from Rochester, MN.
Weekly produce sales begin in June at the farm store and at the Rochester Farmer’s Market. Our inaugural Farm Share Program (CSA) also starts in June; join now for a weekly box of our very best produce plus invitations to our two on-farm events this season.
Pine Island Free Farm focuses on a market garden approach with permanent produce beds and mostly manual labor. We do not use any herbicides, pesticides or other synthetic chemicals at any time. We do apply minimal externally-sourced organic amendments while we continue to grow our composting operation and balance our soil.
We’re completing our organic certification process now, and our 2024 Farm Share Program will be fully compliant with the National Organic Program.
Thank you for supporting the local food supply!
