About Us
A Backyard Farm is the dream of two city farmers,
Joan James and Coleen Gregor.
|
| Joan James |
Joan has been backyard farming since she was a little
girl. The art of raising vegetables has been challenging and always a fluid endeavor. The chance to share this
with other people is a dream come true. She specializes in the growing of heirloom tomatoes. She has spent many
years refining the techniques needed to grow tomatoes vertically. She looks forward to sharing those techniques and
many more with her future customers.

| Coleen Gregor |
Coleen grew up in a farming and gardening family
in Southern Minnesota at a time when farm families grew and preserved much of the family's food. Upon moving to St.
Paul in 1984 she began adapting her growing methods to the urban environment of small yards and community garden spaces.
She is excited to be able to share the experience of farm fresh, high quality organic vegetables with other urban dwellers
via A Backyard Farm.

| Cooper and his friend Sam. |
Cooper has been digging up gardens ever since he was a
puppy. He actually ate an entire Kale plant one day while he was bored. He looks forward to sharing his gardening
tips in his column in our monthly email newsletter.
At A Backyard farm we are dedicated to serving our customer's needs, and our
goal is 100% customer satisfaction. We strive to bring you the best in quality service. If something isn't right, please
let us know.
