Who We Are
This farm is its people.
Knowledgeable, committed, passionate folks dedicated to the organic
stewardship of this piece of land while producing high quality produce
for the Twin Cities community and the surrounding region.
And this farm is its unique land!
Gardens of Eagan is a 100 acre, urban-edge, vegetable farm, providing certified organic produce to the Twin Cities and surrounding communities. Its proximity to a metropolitan area allows the farm to serve as an educational resource to consumers and farmers through its 501 (c) 3 non-profit, The Organic Field School. Gardens of Eagan is a demonstration of the logic, elegance, and viability of ecologically based, organic food production.
Originally in Eagan, Gardens of Eagan was established by Martin Diffley in 1973 and co-operated with Atina Diffley through 2007. It is now owned by the Wedge Community Co-op and run by farm manager, Linda Halley, and a crew of talented, earnest co-conspirators.
Know this: We just plain love farming organically!
