Owners of a farm south of Sun Valley, Idaho, expect to have their new flour mill in operation by the end of April.
Bulk wholesale supplies to bakeries will initially be Hillside Grain’s primary market, owner Brett Stevenson said. Retail and direct sales will also be pursued eventually at the mill, sited on part of the large Hillside Ranch barley and wheat farm.
