Welcome to North Star Farms!
nsflogo.gifGreetings
You've located the Web site of North Star Farms, the home of "Naturally Grown Prairie Produce." Owned by Marvin and Ilene Baker, North Star Farms is an innovative produce operation in northwestern North Dakota, growing certified organic crops for farmers' markets and community supported agriculture.

Latest Innovation
On June 29, 2009, the Entrepreneurial Center for Horticulture at Dakota College in Bottineau, N.D., presented a $20,000 grant to Marv and Ilene to fund the building of a passive solar greenhouse on the farm site. It is the latest innovation at North Star Farms that will bring certified organic transplants to North Dakota consumers in 2010. Data will be shared with the ECH. 

Private Sector Partners
In 2008, North Star Farms was named a private sector partner with the ECH. It means the farm is now a small-scale demonstration site for the production of organic and locally grown produce in North Dakota. We look forward to working with ECH on cutting-edge research as this segment of North Dakota agriculture continues to rapidly expand.

Community Supported Agriculture
This season we are in our second year of community supported agriculture and are actually doubling the amount of shares we had last year to a maximum of 25. A CSA is a community of individuals who pledge support to the farm. In return, they receive fresh, organic prodcue every week throughout the season. For more information, turn to the CSA page on this Web site.
