Eating our way through the Pizza Farms of the US and Canada
I enjoy Grassway Organics so much that I was willing to drive out there two nights in a row for Pizza on the Farm! When I showed up on Friday, Farmers Chaz and Megan graciously greeted me as always. When I showed up again on Saturday, they wondered if I had stayed overnight in the…
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…
Going to a pizza farm has always been a social event for me. A large part of the fun is sharing the experience with friends and family. Yet as I planned this trip a few days in advance, I realized I might be going on my own. In some ways, I was able to relax…
Saturday turned out to be a beautiful fall day to explore a Wisconsin Pizza Farm. It was sunny and the temperature was cool, bordering on cold. I found out later that for my friends in Minnesota it was snowing, so the fact that we could get by with just an extra layer and a fire…

The Wednesday night Pizza Night at Heritage Prairie Farm starts in June and ends in August, so I thought I would have to wait until 2019 for more beet pesto, lemon and garlic massaged kale,…
Troy Farm is Madison, Wisconsin’s first urban farm and only urban Pizza Farm. I heard about it from a friend in Minneapolis in 2017, but didn’t have time to add it into my pizza farm schedule last year. This summer I made sure to coordinate with my old friends that live in Madison to find…
Cress Spring Bakery doesn’t need any more publicity. They have become well loved in the Madison area over the past several years of serving pizza and they were featured in the New York Times. The Pizza Crew, led by bakery owner Jeff, has been pushing hard this summer to keep up with the popularity of Pizza…
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. I wanted to make sure that…
Luna Valley Farm is one of the newest Pizza Farms on the scene. Their first official Pizza Night was in September 2017 and 2018 is their first full Pizza season. I have been emailing with the farmers, Maren and Tom, for almost a year and I was disappointed that my 2017 plans to get to…
