TC Farm: Year Round Produce

One of the great things about our produce program is that it is year round. We focus on the highest quality produce and deliver it right to our members' doors.

Our members get to pick and choose from the kinds of produce boxes that work best for them. Since not every household enjoys exactly the same food at the same time as everyone else, some might want to get our seasonal box every week and our fruit box every other week. Or maybe you want the staples box every other week and the low carb box once a month.

Our members get to pick and choose from the kinds of produce boxes that work best for them.

We make it easy to set up a schedule that fits you best. There is no year-long commitment or penalty for going on vacation. Members can skip any delivery, any week. (We always let our members know what is coming the next week in our produce blog.)

There's no minimum or "right" amount to get. But knowing in advance how much our members need allows us to work with our farmers to plan out what is being raised, seasons ahead.

Why it Matters

  Why Organic Produce Matters?

  All of our produce is organic. TC Farm requires everything is at least transition organic but in practice most is fully certified.

  Transition organic crops are crops grown 100% to the organic standards, except the land hasn't completed its three year transition period yet.

  As a consumer, having that peace of mind is worth a few hundred dollars a year spread across all of the food that farm creates.

  Why Year Round?

  Even with Minnesota's shorter growing season, we really can pack in a bunch of growth during those long summer days!

  Still - It is hard to have a viable business if what you do starts and stops twice a year.

  • How can anyone have a career building a better local food system if all the jobs last 18 weeks or less?
  • We thought to ourselves: How can we extend the growing season itself?

  Why does Local Matter?

  Besides all the local economic perks, local also provides some key benefits for all of us to enjoy:

  • Fresher: even fresher than grocery!
  • Heirloom: healthier and tastier varieties simply won't hold up to inter-state transport.
  • Environment: the more land we better manage in Minnesota, the better our local rivers, lakes and soil will be.

Why Is it a Big Deal? So Flexible!

Something very unique about TC Farm's produce program is that you don't need to commit to an entire season. Most CSA's require you to sign up for a whole season and can only skip a limited number of deliveries.

Our produce program is so much more flexible. We ask our members how often they want to get produce deliveries (and what type) - but then we also let our members know what is coming in each box the following week and you can choose to skip that delivery if it doesn't fit you. (Or add additional produce, too!)

If you want to see what's in each coming week's produce packages, just check the Produce Blog -- we update what going to be in the coming week's deliveries every Thursday.
