Grand Marais, MN
“Our mission is to provide the local community with high quality, sustainably grown vegetables and cut flowers. Last year, after growing and selling casually for years, I decided to scale up by increasing production and expanding sales outlets to include a farmers market, wholesale grocery and restaurant, and direct to consumers using the CSA model and informal farm tours.”
– Sadie Sigford, owner
The Project
Funds will be used to construct a root cellar, allowing the farm to start a winter CSA. The space will generate revenue during the off-season so the farm can grow more food and diversify crops.
Environmental Impact
Large amounts of food are shipped to Grand Marais during winter months. A winter CSA would provide local produce at a time when reliance on outside sources is at its highest.
