We would like to share how Pride Trails Produce stand got its name.
Before we were brought into this wonderful family, our parents rescued a bunch of wild baby Canada Goslings. Only so many made it to see their first feathers grow in. The ones that got to see their first true feathers were named Pride 1 and Trails 1. Our Mom and Dad loved them both very much. After Trails 1 passed away, Pride 1 was all alone and Mom and Dad got her a couple of duck friends to help keep her company during the day while they were working. After the sudden loss of Pride 1 over the winter, they got us and we were named Pride 2 and Trails 2 after our predecessors. With the farm going and Mom being an educator and loving to teach others and wanting to provide a service to others that might not be able to afford the store prices of fresh produce, she thought of doing a farm stand.
Over a number of days we could hear Mom and Dad talking about what to name it. Then one day we were walking around honking and they looked at us and said, “AW HA, Pride Trails Produce!” When Mom and Dad said that we and all our other siblings (ducks and chickens) started to make lots of noise as we all loved the idea. Mom and Dad had to settle us all down, which was not that hard, just bring us some fresh produce. So, there it is, that is how our Mom’s produce stand got its name, after us and our predecessors.

Hi,
My name is Kirsten. I am the owner and operator of Pride Trails Produce. When coming up with this business it was to give people a different option for getting reasonable priced fresh produce.
As an educator in the local schools I see that children are not getting enough fruits and veggies, and I know that both parents are working and barely making the income it is to make healthy choices. I thought with my stand this would be a way to give the working people a place to go get reasonable priced produce. Also at the same time to show people what is really happening to our farm land as we keep building warehouses on it. The fun part comes when customers get to come and see some action that is going on in the fields as workers are picking their food or getting ready to go out to plant.
The end goal is to educate the public and give people a place to get reasonable priced produce.
