Celebrate the return of summer with outdoor theater!

“Each day I go into the fields to see what is growing and what remains to be done. It is always the same thing: nothing is growing, everything needs to be done” - The Farmer by W.D Ehrhart

FARM is a meditation on small family farming in Minnesota.  The production will feature sweeping images of historical and modern farm life through music, dance, theater and performing artists from the Twin Cities and the local community. The production hopes to inspire reflection on the rituals of farming, the accessibility of fresh food for all Minnesotans, and our relationships with farmers in our state. FARM features vignettes of hard work, family meals, community celebrations, dangerous storms, dance and play culminating in a music-filled ghost grove honoring the past, present and the future of farming in Minnesota.
