If you've ever wanted to find out where local food comes from, or if you're interested in becoming a local grower yourself, there's an opportunity to visit Floodwood River Farm between 9 and 11 a.m. this Saturday morning as part of the 4th Annual Iron Range Harvest Festival . Visitors can check out how the Hietalas grow and harvest veggies and fruits, and how they process pickles and salsa for sale at the farmers' market in Hibbing . Both Jill Hietala and her husband Rob work full time. They operate their farm with help from their son and his family. Jill says Floodwood River Farm is "in the woods, halfway between Hibbing and Floodwood...We got married in '79--been here ever since. My husband built himself a little bachelor shack before that, and ended up with a wife and three kids. We added on to the house a few times. My son and his wife and two kids share our house now. We kinda made it into a duplex." The farm has three gardens. One is near the house. Beyond that is a larger garden
