There are farms throughout Montana that grow all sorts of crops for Big Sky Country, America, and the world.

One of the main crops Montana grows is Red Spring Wheat.

This crop is found in several foods, from pizza dough to bread to other items involving wheat.

Some farms have been family-run for generations, and a few spots where companies operate in Montana.

Is there a farm in Montana that is the best?

According to one source, yes.

Best Farm in Montana

This answer might start an intense debate.

Food & Wine published The Best Farms in Every State, and it's wild.

The criteria were Food & Wine's preference for the best farms in every state.

Montana's could stir some debates locally.

So, where is the best farm in Montana?

Food & Wine picked two.

First, they picked Triple Creek Ranch, which is an all-inclusive resort.

Triple Creek Ranch grows most of its produce right on the property for guests to enjoy.

The other farm mentioned is the Western Montana Growers Co-Op.

This cooperative is around fifty different farms that have come together to offer produce throughout Montana and the Pacific Northwest.

These two farms show you how vastly different farms can look in Montana.

Some farms are at world-class resorts, or local farms that band together to supply their citizens.

That's the beauty of Montana.
