The Sustainable Farming Association with assistance from MISA is conducting a survey to all residents of Northern Minnesota. Please read the following before taking the survey and then share this with your friends and family:

We are working on a project to expand availability of locally raised meat and poultry in Minnesota. Please take a few moments to answer this consumer interest survey if you live in Northern MN – and if not, please circulate to any friends, family or colleagues who are Northern MN residents (North of Hwy 210/ Fergus Falls, Wadena, Brainerd, Duluth and further North). These survey results will help us understand consumer interest and preferences for purchasing locally raised meat and poultry in Northern Minnesota.

Bonus! Complete the survey and be entered into a drawing for great prizes. Three copies of the Minnesota Homegrown Cookbook and two Sustainable Farming Association caps will be given away to survey respondents entered in the drawing.

This survey is being conducted by the Sustainable Farming Association of Minnesota (www.sfa-mn.org) with assistance from the Minnesota Institute for Sustainable Agriculture at the University of Minnesota (www.misa.umn.edu).

Northern Minnesota Local Meat Survey

While the weather has been exceptionally warm this spring(well, except right now there are snow flurries flying by the window), the greenhouse will not be opened earlier than usual, as the plants are still growing!

The greenhouse is expected to be assembled and filled with plants for a May 11th opening.

In the meantime, stop into the store to check out our wide selection of gardening products such as: seeds, organic fertilizer, gardening books, gardening gloves, plant markers/supports, onion sets, hose-end attachments, organic potting soil, organic compost activator, compost thermometers, and more!

The greenhouse was booming with blooms during the summer of 2011!

In August, we posted saying that we were changing things on our website, and while we did change a few things, now the real fun will begin!

Currently, we have someone designing a WHOLE new website for Natural Harvest Food Co-op. This website will be easier to use with a better layout and more information. We will keep you updated as the website is closer to completion.

In the meantime, visit our Facebook and Twitter accounts for more information and news updates.
