Frogtown Farm plan from Frogtown Gardens website.
Frogtown Farm came one giant step closer to reality with the March 5 announcement that the Wilder Foundation will sell the site at 919 Lafond Avenue in St. Paul to the Trust for Public Land at a bargain-basement price of $2.2 million. The approximately 12-acre site was valued by Wilder at $4.5-4.4 million, but the press release said that, "The sale price is significantly reduced from the appraised value as Wilder’s contribution to the community, and to ensure the property will be used in a way consistent with the community’s vision to be of benefit to the community."
