Scale Attendant
About Threemile Canyon Farms
For more than 20 years, Threemile Canyon Farms has responsibly provided for the nutritional needs of a growing population through our sustainable dairy and farming operations. We were early innovators in building a "closed loop" system of sustainable farming, made possible by bringing together crop farming and dairy production. These highly complementary operations allow us to recycle organic waste back into the soil, helping minimize waste while maintaining healthy crops. With more than 39,500 acres of irrigated farmland, we are committed to responsible farming practices that benefit our employees, community, and future generations.
