Featured Vendor: Whitewater Gardens

This week's second featured vendors are Sandy and Amanda Dietz of Whitewater Gardens located in Altura, Minnesota. They have been in operation since 1996 starting with a half acre of vegetables that grew into ten to twelve acres of vegetables with two greenhouses and two in the making.
They purchased their farm of 120 acres in 1991. They grow their vegetables for wholesale, CSA, and the farmer's market.They are also currently working on winter production.
Whitewater Gardens has been at the market since their beginning in 1996. Sandy believes people should come to the market because of the fresh food and the fact that the market is a social event. It gives people a chance to get to know the people who grow their food. Sandy herself loves the socializing and the people the best about the market.


You can find Sandy at the farmer's market every Saturday morning from 7:30 a.m. until 1:00 p.m. She can also be reached by phone at (507) 932-5225
