About the Farm

Background

Founded with a mission to transform disabilities into abilities, Farm in the Dell of the Red River Valley has become a cornerstone in the community by providing meaningful employment to individuals with developmental disabilities. The farm is known for its inclusive environment where people with and without disabilities work together, fostering a sense of purpose and community. Over the years, the farm has expanded its offerings to include a variety of produce, flowers, and community events, all while maintaining its core mission of love and acceptance.

Practices

The farm employs individuals with disabilities to assist with farm and garden operations, ensuring a successful harvest each season. By working closely with local families and agencies, the farm connects individuals with purposeful work that enriches their lives. The farm's philosophy centers on the belief that everyone deserves to feel seen, heard, valued, and celebrated. This is achieved through a combination of hands-on work, community engagement, and a supportive environment that nurtures both the land and the people who work it.

The Rest

In addition to its CSA program, the farm offers a variety of community events such as Berry Breakfasts, Fall at the Farm, and the Table to Farm Dinner Series. Visitors can also enjoy U-Pick produce, a pumpkin patch, and farm-fresh flowers. Every CSA sold provides income for employees with special needs, making each purchase a contribution to a greater cause. The farm's commitment to community and inclusivity is evident in every aspect of its operations, from the produce it grows to the people it employs.
