About the farm
DragSmith Farms is a 104-acre Certified Organic Produce Farm located just north of Barron, WI along the pristine Yellow River. About 34 years ago Maurice and Gail bought the farm that has been in Gail's family 120 years. DragSmith comes from a blending of Gail's maiden name, Dragseth, and our shared last name, Smith. We did this to signify the new and old and to create a bit of mystery.
We grow approximately 30 acres of produce that we market along with honey maple syrup and other products from neighboring farms. We sell to some of the finest restaurants and food co-ops in Minnesota and Wisconsin. As a certified organic grower, we utilize all of the regulations required for organic certification and in fact go the extra mile to preserve our farm and our environment.
