Farmers Market is open every day, From June to October. 

Shop all summer long in the cool bank barn for farm fresh produce!

At the Farm is a blossoming organic venture nestled in a nostalgic farm setting at the heart of Carver County.

Waconia is just southwest of the Minneapolis / St. Paul metro area.

In the spring and early summer I sell Bulk Vegetable Seeds and Vegetable Plants as well as a great assortment of bedding plants.

What are bulk vegetable seeds? That means you can buy as much or as little you need for your size vegetable  garden!

Vegetable Gardening advice is available too!

The second edition of my new book, Gardening According to Donna, by Donna Frantz is ready!  I've had them reprinted and also added an appendix on canning for those of you who would like to learn the art of preserving your garden produce.

Scarecrow Saturday was October 8th!  What a fun and beautiful day for a fall photo shoot by the teepee or on the covered wagon!

The barn At the Farm is handicap accessible and the parking area is large enough to accommodate coach bus tours!

Tour guides, please call ahead so we can prepare for your tour!
