We make every effort to grow a wide variety of the best-quality, certified organic produce for today’s health-conscious consumer.

Vegetable varieties available in 2009:
Chioggia and Detroit Dark Red Beets, Bolero, Negovia and Nelson Carrots, Straight 8 and Mideast Prolific Cucumbers, Falltime and Sherwood Leeks, Rossa di Milano and Walla Walla Onions, Pioneer Shell Peas, Burbank Russet, Red Norland and Yukon Gold Potatoes, Baeuregard (non-organic) Sweet Potatoes, Purple Top Turnips.

Garlic varieties available in 2009:
We planted nine hardneck varieties and two softneck varieties on Oct. 3 and 10. Here's what we have in the field; German Extra Hardy, Siberian, Georgia Crystal, Georgia Fire, Russian Giant, Belarus, Romanian Red, Yugoslavian and Polish Hardneck. We tripled a softneck (Lorz) that we grew in 2008 because this garlic sold out in two weeks. Because of this incredible demand, we added the softneck Inchelium, which has done well in field trials in North Dakota.
Unusual varieties available in 2009
Santo Coriander, Star of David Okra, Jumbo Virginia ant Tennessee Red Valencia Peanuts, and Atlantic Giant (non organic) Pumpkin.
Thanks to you, our customers for making 2008 another great farming season and we look forward to seeing you Aug. 1 when we will bring you the best certified organic produce in North Dakota when North Prairie Farmers Market opens in Minot.
