 Doug, Lois and Jesse Hoffbauer are the recipients of the 2009 St. Louis County Farm Family of the year.  Stop in at the Duluth Farmer's Market to congratulate them. 

Farmer Doug and Lois Hoffbauer are owners of a fruit, vegetable and Christmas tree farm just outside of Duluth, MN.  The name Farmer Doug came from our neighbor's grandchildren who love to visit "Farmer Doug".  There is so much to see and do at Farmer Doug's. Bosten and Brycen can always find a mud puddle to play in.

Farmer Doug and Lois are dedicated to bring customers the highest quality & best tasting fresh fruits and vegetables possible.  Living in Midway Township, and selling products at the Duluth Farmer's Market, and Proctor Farmer's Market helps to make Farmer Doug who he is.  Lois just been approved to have a farmer's market at the Midway townhall parking lot starting in July. 

Duluth Farmer's Market is now open for the season.  Spring planting is underway.  You can find Farmer Doug at the Duluth Market every Wednesday and Saturday from 7am to noon. 

Farmer Doug lives this life because he's good at it, but his passion is growing Christmas trees.  Graduating from U of M in Forestry 30 something years ago, he has used his education to produce the best local Christmas trees in the Duluth area.  You can find Farmer Doug selling his trees at the Duluth Farmer's Market daily from the day after Thanksgiving until December 23rd.  You can also send a fragrant gift from the northland by going to our other website www.balsamwreath.com.
