Owl Bluff Farm is a small, certified organic farm tucked into a scenic valley in Houston County, Minnesota. We grow everything we sell on less than one acre, including crops in three high tunnels and a Deep Winter Greenhouse designed by, and built in partnership with, the University of Minnesota. Our fresh, flavorful produce is available through local co-ops, grocery stores, restaurants, farmers markets, and directly to customers via our online farm store. We're also hoping to start a winter CSA, so stay tuned!

​

We focus on sustainable, soil-building practices and strive to be good stewards of the land and our community. The 20-acre farmstead is not only home to our crops but also to pollinators, owls, and other beneficial wildlife—thanks to native prairie plantings, perennial hedgerows, and our commitment to habitat creation.

​

The name Owl Bluff is a tribute to the breathtaking bluffs that surround us, the owls that inhabit them, and Carrie’s late grandma Carolyn, an owl lover and devoted gardener.
