Need a little help finding something. I need to know what words to
use on google to find the cooperative farms where you pay a share for the crops? Last year we did not have a good year and want to make sure that does not happen again. In NE MN it is not always possible to get a good garden.

Thank everyone for any help you can supply.

1. CSA's
Here is Oregon they are called Community Supported Agriculture (CSA) programs.

5. Here in New Hampshire too!
But "CSA" will also match the Canadian Standards Association,
their group roughly equivalent to Underwriters Laboratories.

This link will take you to the first page of farms in Minnesota listed by Local Harvest.

3. Thank you. If we were just a bit south or a bit west we would be okay.
