WHITEHEAD MINK RANCH in Franklin, Idaho

In sheer number of mink farms, Franklin, Idaho is near the top of the list. What is also exceptional about the town is that many of the farms are “micro-farms”, backyard operations that appear to house less than a few thousand mink (very small by current mink farming standards). Most of these farms are clustered in a residential area that doubles as downtown Franklin (less than a mile from the Utah border).

The name and specific address of one of these farms was a mystery, but recently Coalition Against Fur Farm has obtained specifics:
