Faces of our farmers

Using the power of photography to connect citizens with farmers

Your food comes from a farm. But who runs that farm?

We visited farms in Winona County, Minnesota to learn about how they produce food for us. We combined pictures with stories to create a traveling art exhibit. This web gallery will give you a taste of the exhibit and an appreciation for the hard-working people who produce food in our northern climate. The people featured here, of course, are just a few of those who produce your food. Farmers and farm families come in an endless variety.
