Producers with Idaho's Bounty
The Online Food Market is intended to bring fresh, healthy, locally grown and produced food to our local customers in a cost-effective and easy manner on a weekly basis. (View our current pick-up locations.) As your products vary by season, so do the offerings that our customers are able to purchase.
While many of our producers are organic, we also support the sustainable practices of the small non-certified farmer. We believe that the quality and freshness of foods, whether food is produced in an ethical and sustainable manner, and what the energy trail of a product is, are as important as whether a farmer is strictly organic. You can read more about these Idaho's Bounty brand standards on our Mission and Vision page.
Please read the below information for how to find out if your farm and products can be a part of Idaho's Bounty Co-op.
