Gerdes Fresh Farm
Gerdes Fresh Farm is a fourth generation family dairy farm in Caledonia, Minnesota selling raw milk by online reservation, plus farm raised beef from its silo farm store.
Gerdes Fresh Farm is a fourth generation family farm in the bluffs at Caledonia, Minnesota, run by Jonathan and Liz Gerdes.
Jonathan has been farming since birth, helping his grandpa and dad in the barn, and the couple now raise three kids on the family farm while providing healthy, local raw milk to people who care. Raw milk is 6 dollars per half gallon, reserved for pickup through the website.
Visitors are warmly invited: call ahead to schedule a visit, catch the sunset from the top of the bluff, feed a new baby calf or drink a tall glass of creamy fresh milk. The farm store in their renovated silo sells fresh raw milk, warm chocolate chip cookies and the farm's own beef, and a guest house on the farm has a waiting list. Liz writes a lively blog as The Farmer's Wife with stories from the farm and its raw milk customers.
