North Idaho & Sandpoint Area Local Farms & Food Guide
Places that grow & sell locally grown & produced food near Sandpoint and
North Idaho
North Idaho and the area
around Sandpoint is farm and ranch country. People don't imagine Idaho as
urban. We are as rural as they come. Our area has a long history of horse
husbandry, and while potatoes were made famous by our cousins to the south
of the panhandle, we have a great abundance of fresh grown fruits and
vegetables, and locally raised herds. This is a small list of small farms
that sell directly to the public. Bon appetit!
BeeHaven Farm(Bonners
Ferry, ID) We sell fresh, high quality garden vegetables and produce. We sell
through a subscription program or you can see us at the Bonners Ferry
Farmer's Market or call for quantity orders. We also are a specialty cut
flower grower. We sell at area Farmer's Markets, weekly bouguet
subscriptions, to florists and super markets. Everything is grown on our
farm with concern for the health of our soil and in turn the health of
our bodies. Paula Rice
