Minnesota grown is a partnership between the Minnesota Department of Agriculture and crop growers to help Minnesotans distinguish between local products and those being shipped in from miles away. Today the membership includes farms, garden centers, wineries, livestock producers, farmer markets, Christmas tree growers, and producers of wild rice, syrup, cheese, honey, fruits and vegetables.
