Is there more to Idaho than potatoes?
Yes! So many great things about Idaho that can’t possibly be covered here. But what do I see growing in Star? Mostly onions, corn, peaches, and various herbs like basil etc. It’s pretty normal to pick up eggs or corn from a roadside farm stand too.

How's the weather?
This is a 4 season area. So the Summers are hot, with heat peaking around August/September. Then Fall brings cooler weather along with beautiful foliage and signs of the harvest. Winter is cold and dark with the sun not making a morning appearance until 8:30 am. The inversion can be daunting for some. The snow varies but overall we do not get a lot of snow and it usually doesn’t stick around. Then Spring brings warmer weather and rain.

What is the inversion?
Though there is a technical explanation, an inversion is basically foggy weather that sticks around for a while. So you may not see the sun for a week or so. If you need to, a quick trip to Bogus basin or other higher elevation will get you out of the fog and back into the sun.
