Minto Island Growers
Minto Island Growers was formed is 2008 when Elizabeth and Chris started converting several acres of the Salem farm, owned by the Miller family, to organic vegetable production. Elizabeth grew up working for the Miller family farm operation- Mt. Jefferson Farms, which encompasses many acres and projects, both in the Willamette Valley and Eastern Oregon. The Salem farm where MIG operates, was purchased in the early 1970's, mostly due to its industrial scale, operating mint still- a unique asset because at that time MJF grew extensive mint acreage for essential oil.

Native and hybrid poplars were planted in research blocks and other stoolbeds were cultivated to supply other poplar plantings. The native plants work, started in Scio/Shelburne at the mint farm, was also expanded into a native plants nursery specializing in large riparian restoration projects.
