Dukes Farm: Serving the Upper Peninsula, since 2004

In commercial operation since 2004, Dukes Farm is a family-run operation on 40 acres in Skandia, Michigan:  about 20 miles southeast of Marquette.  Vegetables are grown on about 4 acres.  Dukes Farm services primarily Marquette and Alger counties, including the cities of:  Marquette, Negaunee, and Ishpeming.

Dukes Farm exceeds national USDA Organic standards for growing produce, meaning our vegetables are safe for you, your family, and the environment.

Dukes Farm grows many crops that thrive in the Upper Peninsula’s cool growing climate, such as cabbage and greens, garlic, as well as root vegetables, such as potatoes, carrots, onions, and beets.

Seedlings and many of the warm-weather vegetables, such as tomatoes, peppers, and cucumbers are grown in high tunnel greenhouses.

Young tomato plants

Many of Dukes Farm’s vegetables are heirloom varieties, developed over the centuries with a priority on good flavor and nutrition.

You can buy our produce in a few different ways:

  • Sign up to be a CSA member and receive a weekly box of vegetables from June into October
  • Order in our online shop and have your items delivered or available for pickup at our Marquette pick up site, throughout the season
  • Find our produce at Devooght’s General Store, the Marquette Food Co-op, and other local grocers.
