    Farm Stop Collective Co-op with Bobbi Boos and Jennifer Ryan | S11E13
    Nov 10 2026

    What started as a simple way for farmers to band together to sell their goods, Bloomington Farm Stop Collective has grown into a one-stop-shop for all your meat, dairy, and produce needs along with a cafe. While owned by over sixty farmers, Bobbi Boos and Jennifer Ryan run the day to day operations. From ready-to-eat hot meals at lunch, to house-made syrups for their coffee offerings, to artisan crafts, the Bloomington Farm Stop Collective has so much more than you might have ever realized.
