More than 25 years ago, Threemile Canyon Farms started with a vision: to be the leader in sustainable farming by bringing together dairy production and crop farming. Since then, Threemile has responsibly provided for a growing population of people who care about where their food comes from. Our original vision shines through every day as we combine modern agricultural practices, the highest standards in animal welfare and resource stewardship.
We believe in advancing agriculture through innovative, holistic, regenerative technological practices. Every aspect of our farming approach is based on improving efficiency while caring for the land and animals, from our commitment to growing high-quality food and responsible water management to reducing our carbon footprint through our closed-loop system.
Our vision is only made possible because of our people. We believe that a safe and rewarding work environment means a happy, satisfied workforce that shares ownership in our philosophy and pride in carrying it forward every day, both at work and in our local communities.
Doing what we say. Taking care of the land. Upholding the highest standards for animal welfare. Partnering with employees.
These are the values at the center of our closed-loop system of sustainable farming, which provides the framework for everything we do. This circular agriculture system brings together crop farming and dairy production. These are highly complementary pursuits when done with care – particularly when it comes to recycling nutrients.

We grow conventional and organic crops using methods that prioritize reusing and recycling wherever we can. Our dairy places the health and well-being of our animals ahead of everything else. As a result, Threemile’s milk quality surpasses industry standards and keeps Oregon as one of the nation’s leaders in milk quality. Our partnership with the Tillamook County Creamy Association, providing them with ”extraordinary dairy,” has been a vital part of their uniquely Oregon success story.
Threemile Canyon Farms strives to provide a safe, healthy, and rewarding workplace for all team members. We employ 400 full-time team members on the farm and dairy; we also hire about 150 seasonal team members each year. Farm and livestock hourly employees enjoy benefits as members of the United Farm Workers union, including a competitive wage, health, and welfare benefits. We’re proud to have a diverse team deeply passionate about sustainable agriculture, including multi-generational farming families and full-time staff who started in our intern program.
