Meet the farm
Common Harvest Farm, helmed by Dan Guenthner and Margaret Pennings, has been a cornerstone of sustainable agriculture for nearly 35 years. Nestled on the bluff of the St. Croix River, the farm grows 40 varieties of organic vegetables and herbs. Their innovative Sharing the Harvest program ensures that fresh produce reaches those who lack access. By offering various membership options, they provide direct-to-consumer organic produce shares from mid-June to early October, using a network of community-oriented drop-sites for delivery.
Founded in 1989, Common Harvest Farm is a family-owned and operated endeavor by Dan Guenthner, Margaret Pennings, and their three children. Occupying a beautiful location on the bluff of the St. Croix River, it represents years of dedication to sustainable agriculture and community support.
Common Harvest Farm is committed to sustainable farming practices, emphasizing community involvement and the stewardship of the land. They carefully monitor the health of local ecosystems and pride themselves on good farming practices. Their operations include greenhouse work, planting and cultivating, high tunnel management, and consistent harvesting, ensuring a seasonal supply of fresh produce.
The farm grows 40 different organic vegetables and herbs, offering a variety of produce options throughout the growing season. Customers can choose from several membership options, including regular shares, half shares, and a fruit share, enabling households to select the best plan for their needs. The farm provides these shares from mid-June through early October.
One of the farm's standout initiatives is the 'Sharing the Harvest' program, which distributes produce to community members who might not otherwise have access to fresh, organic vegetables. The farm also invites and educates new generations of farmers through a dedicated intern program. This program offers interns the opportunity to learn a broad range of organic farming tasks.
Deliveries are made weekly on Thursdays via a network of neighborhood pickup locations, integral to their CSA model. This setup provides community engagement and convenience for members. Prior to deliveries, new members receive guidance from their designated drop-site coordinators. Box sharing and reusing of boxes are encouraged as part of their sustainable approach.
Common Harvest Farm is located at 212 280TH Street, Osceola, WI 54020. The site harmonizes with its surrounding natural beauty while boosting local produce availability.
