About Farmstead Outdoor Adventures
Farmstead Outdoor Adventures is part of Farmstead Bike Shop in Northfield!
Owners Greg Neis and Brianna Lane (that’s us!) opened Farmstead Bike Shop in South Minneapolis in 2016. In 2021 We expanded and opened a second location in Northfield - an incredible town that we have spent a lot of time getting to know over the years and have always loved! Our Northfield shop overlooks the Cannon River so naturally we were dreaming of paddling. We thought - how great it would be to start a paddling rental program? But there was already a well established outfitters nearby, The Gear Resource, and we didn’t want to compete.
One day in the spring of 2021 a guy walked into our shop looking for a bike part and we were chatting about our dreams of expanding to kayaks but not wanting to step on the toes of the folks at Gear Resource. He laughed a bit and asked, “wanna buy it?” Turned out we were talking with one of the owners of the outfitters and they were looking to sell! We happily took them up on their offer and they were pleased to hand off the kayaking and snowshoe side of the business to folks who will run it much like they did!

“The rivers flow not past, but through us, thrilling, tingling, vibrating every fiber and cell of the substance of our bodies, making them glide and sing.”
