History

Farm Fresh first came together in 1991. They later moved to Winnipeg,[3] and in 1994 released their first recording The Space EP.[3] This was followed by a full-length album named Crazy Friction in 1995.[4]

Soon after, the group stopped developing new material. They released a compact disc called Played Out, containing previous recordings and a few unreleased songs, in 1996.[5][6] The band also appeared on Rheostatics' album The Nightlines Sessions, collaborating with that band on an improvised live track called "Trans Jam".[7]

Farm Fresh reunited for an anniversary album named Time Is Running Out, which was released in March 2005.[8] The album was recorded in a basement studio in Brandon.[9]

All of their albums have been released on Peanuts & Corn Records, a label founded and operated by mcenroe.[10]
