Jacob Daniel Farms

Jacob & Joylyn

About

Jacob and his wife Joylyn are immigrant farmers from India who started farming in 2017 at Big River Farms incubator program in Marine on St. Croix. They approach farming in a sustainable and environmentally-friendly manner that prioritizes the use of natural inputs and processes, such as crop rotation, composting, and biological pest management, to promote soil health, biodiversity, and food safety.

Jacob Daniel Farms produce can be purchased through their CSA program, found for sale at the Kingfield farmers market in south Minneapolis, at Seward Co-op, and through an online marketplace that delivers direct to your home. Their produce is also sold to several of The Food Group’s agency partners so that their food shelf customers have access to fresh, nutritious veggies.
