A Century-Spanning Legacy in Every Hand-Picked Berry<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Nestled high in the rugged beauty of Rose Canyon, just on the outskirts of Herriman, Utah, lies Hi-Country Farms<\/strong>. While our roots stretch from our original location in Hunter, Utah, and across a 300 sprawling acre ranch in Rush Valley, this unique six-acre haven is where we cultivate and harvest a very special treasure: Bampa Mountain Juniper Berries<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

As a proud property of B1 Ranch, we don\u2019t just farm this land\u2014we live its history.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
