Eating our way through the Pizza Farms of the US and Canada
We’ve entered the final month of the 2017 Pizza Farm season and I am ready for a strong finish. Over the weekend, Robinette texted me and said, “Are we going Tuesday even though it is supposed to be thunderstorms?” I replied, “Yes,” and she replied, “Good.” Tuesday rolled around and Gina and the Robins…
For the past year I have been hearing about Pleasant Grove, a newer Pizza Farm in Waseca, MN. On my way home from Madison, I detoured slightly out of the way so that I could check it out. You have to take some unpaved roads to get there and they’ve put out a few wooden…
We were told to arrive early by some of the locals. We were warned that the line can get really long. We showed up around 4:45pm, 15 minutes after Pizza Night was listed as starting. We were directed into the overflow parking lot and when we inquired if this was because it was already full,…
Our Number One Favorite did it again. Looking back on my Tuesday evening at the Pizza Farm, I get the satisfied feeling of knowing that those few hours on the farm were spent extremely well. We loaded up one full car of people and headed out of town on a sunny and mild Tuesday…
It has been a cool and rainy August so far in Minneapolis and it has taken a little more dedication and determination to follow through on some of these Pizza Farm nights. Yesterday required some flexibility and a little stubbornness to achieve Last Night’s Pizza Box ultimate goal of capping off a successful day with…
Sometimes we go to the pizza farm even if the weather forecast says scattered thunderstorms, heavy rain, and possible flooding. And so far it has always been worth it. Last night we showed up to Red Barn Farm of Northfield in groups staggered throughout the evening. Car Number One arrived just after 5pm and it…
Pizza Farms are a Midwest thing, but I’ve been able to find places from coast to coast that are doing something similar. Last night we went West to Hideaway Bakery and the Mazzi family farm in Eugene, Oregon. If I had a few extra weekend days, I would have checked out Agrarian Ales in Eugene.…
Success! We completed our very first Pizza Farm Camping Trip! Sawmill Pizza and Brew Shed was our final stop before we returned to life with comfortable beds and lots of salads. We left early from our campsite, making the hard choice to pass on the mini golf course just a few feet from our tent,…
Fortunately it turns out that the Last Night’s Pizza Box Camping Trip group is a flexible bunch, because it felt like we changed a majority of our plans. We had a plan on Saturday and we drove out to our reserved site at Black Lake Campground. Almost immediately we decided to find somewhere more suitable.…
The next Pizza Farm on our route was Stoney Acres Farm, not far from Wausau. We were expecting close to 3 hours of driving, but we planned to split it up. First stop – coffee and pastries at a coffee shop in Alma, Wisconsin along the Mississippi. I ate a few leftover pizza slices and…
