Located in Chico, California, Comanche Creek Farms was founded in 1997 by Jim Miller. Jim ran the farm with his sons for over 20 years and developed a loyal following for his high-quality produce. The farm changed owners in 2019 and is now run by Sean Mindrum and Greg Martin. Sean was a professional chef for 38 years, and a happy Comanche Creek customer, often using the produce in his cooking.

Sean developed a passion and deep knowledge of food as a chef, and brings that enthusiasm to work every day as a grower. This background gives him a unique perspective and allows him to turn some of his excess crops into a sauce that he jars and sells.

Comanche Creek Farms grows over 260 varieties of produce, including figs, pomegranates, okra, and much more. However, they have a strong focus on heirloom tomatoes and summer squash. They operate year-round, and harvest crops from 40 acres of land.

Certified organic since 2011, the farm has a philosophy that supports healthy soil. Comanche Creek demonstrates their commitment to sustainability in many ways including: growing cover crops for soil fertility, using only natural methods of pest control, and recycling natural materials back into the soil.
