Eating our way through the Pizza Farms of the US and Canada
Going to two Pizza Farms in a span of 3 days made for exactly my kind of summer vacation. I filled in the spare hours between Pizza Night One at Red Barn Farm and Pizza Night Two at Borner Farm Project by visiting old friends and meeting new babies around Minneapolis. After a few days…
Congratulations to Red Barn Farm of Northfield. Over the past few years, the Winter family has notably survived a tornado and a global pandemic and is still going strong with their Pizza Night on the farm every Wednesday from May to October. With a beautiful new red barn and an easy-to-use online reservation system, Red…
Every time I travel I cross-reference my route and the dates of travel with my Pizza Farm Map. There is almost always a way to add a Pizza Farm adventure to whatever else is happening in my life. A trip to Southern Minnesota for a Farm Wedding (which turned out to have some special Fruit…
I hesitated at first to suggest Blossom Hill Orchard and Farm to the Pizza Farm Road Trip travelers. In my head, my priority was Pizza Farms and some of the other travelers were more focused on Breweries. And Iowa, especially Decorah, is well represented in the Craft Beer arena.

For the past year I have been hearing about Pleasant Grove, a newer Pizza Farm in Waseca, MN. On my way home from Madison, I detoured slightly out of the way so that I could check it out. You have to take some unpaved roads to get there and they’ve put out a few wooden…
It has been a cool and rainy August so far in Minneapolis and it has taken a little more dedication and determination to follow through on some of these Pizza Farm nights. Yesterday required some flexibility and a little stubbornness to achieve Last Night’s Pizza Box ultimate goal of capping off a successful day with…
Sometimes we go to the pizza farm even if the weather forecast says scattered thunderstorms, heavy rain, and possible flooding. And so far it has always been worth it. Last night we showed up to Red Barn Farm of Northfield in groups staggered throughout the evening. Car Number One arrived just after 5pm and it…
Last year when Gigi and Robinette were just getting started on some of their Pizza Farm marathons, our friend, Bea, casually said, “Why don’t you just come over to Powderhorn and we can have our own Pizza Night with my parents’ neighborhood wood-fired brick pizza oven.” In my head I could not believe that someone…
It is peak Pizza Farm Season in the Midwest and Red Barn Farm was hopping last night. It was sunny and hot, but with a nice breeze and shade that spread over the lawn as the evening continued. Gigi and Robinette were back at it and we brought a new friend, Mike. Mike was intrigued…
The storms held off for us as we headed north to a new pizza farm on the banks of the St. Croix River. We knew it was our first time at this pizza farm, but we didn’t realize until we arrived that it was the Women’s Environmental Institute’s (W-E-I) first ever Pizza Night. They did…
