Compton Farm
Products
Grass fed/finished beef
About
After retirement I decided to convert the crop land on our 96 acre farm to grazing and hay production. I bought the first two head of cattle in 2008 and in 2009 purchased 3 more. Beef is sold by the quarter, half, etc. We use White Front Market out of Cokato for the slaughter and processing. The beef is packaged and cut to your instructions.
Where to Find
Direct from farm in Dassel

Late summer/early fall
Sustainable Practices:
Cattle are fed grass or hay only along with salt and trace minerals. During the grazing season they are moved to new pasture daily. No grain, hormones, growth implants, pesticides, etc. are used.

Little Heart Homestead
Products
Flowers, sourdough breads, and eggs
About
My heart is in the country, but my home is in town. I'm Kaitlin Tolkkinen, a wife, and mom of 5 littles. We live in a little old house, smack-dab in the heart of Cokato. We are making the most of the plot of land we have. Our backyard contains cut flower gardens and a pink chicken coop where our pet...er... laying chickens reside. My favorite place is in the kitchen, turning "ingredients" into delicious food. I am a registered cottage foods producer, specializing in sourdough of every form - my absolute favorite thing to make and eat. I opened a self-serve market stand to sell my organic cut flower bouquets, breads, eggs, and anything else we produce on our homestead.
