PETERS FAMILY FARMS

Peters Family Farms is located just a few miles north of the Snake
River Canyon in Jerome County. The goal is and has always been to
provide the highest quality produce to the community. We haven’t
and will never spray non-organic pesticides on any produce that is
sold from our farm. We are striving to break the mold that farmers
are put in by educating our customers about our practices and always being transparent with
our choices.
Products: seasonal fruits and vegetables, eggs

PRAIRIE SUN FARM
carol.b.rast@gmail.com
Fairfield is home to Carol Rast at Prairie Sun Farm. What began as
a backyard garden passion eventually grew into over a one-acre
garden. Specializing in items ideal for farmers market sales, you’ll
find Carol in a protective sun bonnet every Wednesday at the
Ketchum farmers market. Strictly using organic methods but not certified on paper, they follow
sustainable land practices, where wise resource allocation is the priority. Two greenhouses
grow tomatoes, peppers, and other hot-weather items in a location that can get frost any night
of the summer.
Products: seasonal vegetables, leafy greens, herbs
Available at: Direct from farmer, NourishMe, CK’s Real Food, Wood River Farmers Markets
