Hello from Treasured Haven Farm!
Thanks for stopping by to visit! Treasured Haven Farm is home to the Johnson's... Pete,
Peg, our two sons, Zach and Ike, our three daughters and their families when they come
home to visit, a couple of dogs, a few barn cats, some cows, sheep, a whole lot of goats,
and, of course, all our Friends! In 2010 the chickens are making a grand return to the
farm. Our meat and eggs shares are separate from our veggies shares.
At Treasured Haven Farm, we believe in farming in an environmentally responsible
manner. All our crops are Naturally Grown, whether it is the hay in the fields or the fresh
veggies in the garden. We use no chemicals, pesticides, commercial petroleum based
fertilizers, or preservatives on any of our crops and follow the most natural farming
practices. Our garden areas are in the center of our 400 acre farm and so they are safe
from any potential contamination from any neighboring properties. We have no hesitation
to reach down and grab a handful of lettuce, some spinach, a carrot, radishes, or fresh
green onions and eat a salad on the go while on the walks through the gardens.
With our CSA, you can join a farm that is actually close enough to visit as we are less
than an hour north of the Twin Cities Metro. We are located in East Central Minnesota
near Rush City, within five miles of I-35 between both the Rush City and Rock Creek
(Hwy. 70) exits. The beautiful St. Croix Scenic Riverway is just a couple miles away with
its wonderful trails and boat landings in Northern Chisago County. Visiting our farm can
be combined with a whole days adventures and activities in the area. Our farm has it's
own wooded and fields trails for hiking, horseback riding, or cross country skiing in the
winter for our Members. More info is found on our FAQ page. Please call ahead to
schedule your visit. Thanks.
others so they can experience the true nature of farming. We love the ability of
connecting with the end consumer so they can "Buy Local" and know they can trust their
food source. Most of the food consumers purchase can travel over 1500 miles until it
gets to our tables. We are within 60 miles of downtown Minneapolis and St. Paul so your
produce is freshly picked and delivered the same day. When you Pick-Up on the farm we
offer exchanges so you can get exactly what produce you love.
We offer the opportunity to our members to join us in the farm gardens with cultivating,
harvesting, or packing, and starting in 2010 we are offering our Treasured Haven Farm's
Community Supported Agriculture Supporting Community Program providing school,
youth, and non-profit groups with fundraising opportunities.
As the generations of our society become further removed from the farming lifestyle, it is
important to share with our young children and let them experience that our food does
not just miraculously appear in the grocery stores. A CSA is not just an avenue to
purchase food, but a way to connect with lost heritage.
At Treasured Haven Farm, we seek to provide a total experience for our members by
utilizing all our diverse operations in providing quality products and the sharing of
knowledge. Our farm is unique as we offer other products from the farm in addition to the
garden produce, such as natural wood engravings and homesawn wood products, the
opportunity to see lumber and wood projects created from the logs, and to experience a
genuine rural setting for hikes and picnics and overnight stays, and in the future use of
the log home for your events or parties.
We also raise Naturally Grown Hay, Pastured Chicken, Turkeys, and Pigs, and Grass-
Fed Goats and Beef, and create Custom Engraving. Check the rest of our website for
details.
Have a Wonderfully Blessed Day!
Thanks! The Johnson's

Why Is Community Supported Agriculture Important?
* CSA's direct marketing gives farmers and growers the fairest return on their products
while providing consumers with a reliable source of naturally and locally grown foods.
* CSA keeps food dollars in the local community and contributes to the maintenance
and establishment of regional food production. You help support those farming
operations who pay taxes locally.
* CSA encourages communication, cooperation, and education among farmers, and
between farmers and consumers.
* With a "guaranteed market" for their produce, farmers can invest their time in doing the
best job they can growing their crops rather than marketing during the production
season.
* CSA supports the biodiversity of a given area and the diversity of agriculture through
the preservation of small farms producing a wide variety of crops.
* CSA creates a sense of social responsibility and stewardship of local land.
* CSA puts "the farmers face on food" and increases understanding of how, where, and
by whom our food is grown.
