More Flexibility, More Great Food: New Delivery Day Options are Here!
More Flexibility for Your Nelson Grass Farm Deliveries!
Getting your groceries just got more convenient!
Most customers now have at least two delivery day options each week!
Instead of being assigned to just one delivery day based on your location, you'll soon be able to choose between:
- Tuesday & Friday deliveries, or
- Wednesday & Saturday deliveries
Your regular delivery day may change from what you're used to, but you'll have much more control over when your food arrives.
The basics stay the same: Order cutoffs are still two days before your delivery date, and our $4.99 delivery fee hasn't changed. But now you get to decide what works best for your family's schedule.
Note: If you live in our more rural delivery areas, you'll still receive weekly deliveries, though you may have new day options available.
How MNFood.Club Makes This Possible
In case you haven't heard about MN Food Club yet, it's the shared infrastructure system that now handles our deliveries, cold storage, and order processing. You might notice delivery notifications and charges now come from "MNFood.Club" – that's why!
MNFood.Club brings together independent farmers like us so we can share resources like delivery trucks and cold storage facilities. Now that we're coordinating deliveries with other local producers in our region, we can create more efficient routes that benefit everyone. More farms in the network means better delivery planning, which translates directly into more convenient options for you!
It's pretty wonderful how this collaboration helps us focus more on what we do best – raising happy animals on pasture – while making your life more convenient at the same time.
Supporting Our Farm (And Others) Just Got Easier
Here's what I'm most excited about with these changes: when it's more convenient for you to get your weekly groceries through us, it creates a much bigger impact for our farm.
Every time you add grocery items – whether it's organic produce, pantry staples, or household essentials – to your order, you're directly supporting our farm. We receive a portion of the revenue from those grocery purchases, which helps us invest back into our farm.
Think about it this way: you're buying groceries anyway, right? When you get them through us instead of the grocery store, that purchase helps support our farm. This additional revenue stream is what allows us to keep doing what we love – raising animals the right way on pasture – while making farm-fresh food more accessible to families like yours.
By creating consistent delivery routes through grocery orders, we can spread the delivery costs across more items, which actually helps keep the cost of our farm products more affordable. It's a win-win that helps us compete with big grocery chains while giving you the convenience of one-stop shopping from your local farm.
As MN Food Club grows and welcomes more local producers, you'll start seeing additional local products available on our website. Things like fresh bread from local bakers, seasonal vegetables from nearby farms, or specialty items made in our shared commercial kitchen space. All the convenience of getting everything together, all supporting local food makers, with every purchase directly benefiting our farm.

And now you can do it on whatever schedule works best for you!
