The journey began over 50 years ago when John and Thecla Bauer assisted with the operation of a little white apple stand at the intersection of Highways 14 and 61 in La Crescent, Minnesota.
It wasn’t long after that when Bauer’s Market was born. As the business grew so did the family. John and Thecla’s sons,Bruce and Gene, began working in the business.

Family has been a big part of our success. Today, Bauer’s is owned and operated by Bruce, and his wife, Katrina. Gene currently owns and operates Bauer’s Greenhouse just outside of
La Crescent.
The market and garden center has become a landmark in the La Crescent community. We are proud to support community activities and events including La Crescent’s Applefest held every year in September.

Our Market and Garden Center is known for its quality selection and service. Open year-round, Bauer’s has something for everyone.
In the spring, the garden center and nursery offers an outstanding selection of trees, shrubs, annuals and perennials, vegetable and herb plants, hanging baskets, plus a host of garden accents and seasonal decor.
During summer, the market provides a farm-fresh atmosphere with local produce including strawberries, raspberries, sweet corn and more. By mid-July, the first of over fifty varieties of fresh, local apples signify the coming of fall.
During the fall season, tour buses come from far away to enjoy the bountiful fall harvest of apples, squash, potatoes, pumpkins, plus Amish jams and jellies, Wisconsin honey and cheeses, popcorn, and, of course, a delicious hand-dipped caramel apple!
The smell of fresh-cut Christmas trees and an array of colorful poinsettias provide a festive holiday touch. Holiday fruit baskets, featuring local apples, are always a gift of good taste! As long cold winter days seem to last forever, you’ll always feel a sense of spring as the greenhouse provides relief to warmer days ahead. Wild birdseed and suet, citrus and apples are the most popular items from January through March.
