GET IT WHILE IT'S HOT. A soon-to-be-fresh-out-of-the-oven pie at Farm to Fork.

Scattered across the sunny Wisconsin countryside you’ll find a handful of farms that convert themselves into gourmet pizza places during the summer months. These farms have found a new way to use their resources by harvesting fresh, homegrown ingredients to craft mouth-watering pizzas that can be enjoyed right there on the farm. Round up your family and friends for a summer picnic on one of Wisconsin’s pizza farms!

Editor’s note: One of the region’s best-known pizza farms, A to Z Produce & Bakery near Stockholm, does not plan to hold its weekly pizza nights in 2021. We’ll hold out hope for next year. As A to Z’s website states, “Pizza is in a state of re-invention.”
