About Swift River Farm:
Nestled in the heart of Idaho, we are committed to organic and sustainable methods, which build, empower, and support our region's food system, from farm to fork. Swift River Farm is a small, but diverse vegetable farm, run by Jeremy Shreve and Jessica McAleese. Growing over 100+ varieties of vegetables, herbs and flowers, we work hard to create dynamic and enduring partnerships between our farm and our community. While Swift River Farm is regionally known for our organic culinary garlic, seed stock, and garlic braids/bouquets, we also grow many varieties of regionally adapted vegetable and flower seeds.
Field Day highlights:
-
- Season-extension, soil health, planning for isolation & seed crop production.
- Organic flower seed trials in partnership with Organic Seed Alliance.
- How to connect with government & NGO resources.
- And more!
