After a 22-year career as an English Instructor in Rolla, ND, Danielle Mickelson left teaching to pursue a love for growing vegetables and processing family recipes into pickles, sauces, relishes, jams and jellies. Her family began selling at the Rolla Farmers Market in 2015 as a way to share and sell the bounty of their garden, and it quickly became the passion of Danielle and her daughter Rachael. Each year, Mickelson Tiny Plants expands both in size and offerings to their customers. In 2018 the garden will be larger than an acre and include a large variety of fruits and vegetables that are started in their own home. Danielle was taught to grow, can, cook and bake by her parents and grandparents and is honored that her daughter is becoming the driving force in keeping the traditions alive and sharing them with their community. They can be found every Wednesday and Saturday morning, July through October, in Centennial Park in Rolla, ready to share vegetables, fruits, canned goods, and sourdough breads.
