Farmers Market is open every day, April through 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.
