The largest economic business in the Town is agriculture. There are a number of dairy and beef operations. The primary crops grown are corn, sweet corn, soybeans, alfalfa, and winter wheat. There are also a number of small farms that grow vegetables and fruits for sale at farmers markets, through Community Supported Agriculture (CSA) programs and wholesale.
