Producer

Zed Farms is a local family owned and operated farm in Boulder County that started operations in 2021. One of its primary purposes is to supply nearby food banks with produce—snow peas, okra, potatoes, corn, carrots, beets, watermelon, lettuce, tomatoes, peppers, arugula, and more. They utilize drip irrigation and other climate-savvy growing practices both outdoors and in two hoop houses. Passive geothermal energy is used as climate batteries for heating and cooling the hoop houses.. For the outdoor crops, shade is provided by repurposed event fencing (it’s also great for hail protection!). Zed Farms specialty is hot peppers, including Scotch Bonnet, Habanero, Helios, Buena Mulata, Ghost, and Carolina Reaper among many others.
