Historical Note

The Twin Lakes Canal Company was started in February of 1901 by a group of Poverty Flat farmers in southeast Idaho. In 1902 they organized the Oneida Canal Company Limited, which later became the Oneida Irrigation District. In 1920 another reorganization occurred creating the Twin Lakes Canal Company (which is still in operation). The canal covers thirty miles from Mink Creek across northern Cache Valley. It irrigates 13,000 acres near the towns of Weston, Clifton, Dayton, and Linrose in Franklin County, Idaho. Alfalfa is the main crop grown, but other grains, pasture and (until 1981) sugar beets have also been important. The Company has experienced its share of financial problems over the years. This has led to deteriorating equipment and irrigation works. Concerns of washout, drought, and adverse environmental impact have also remained a constant. Yet the canal is truly an oasis necessary for the livelihoods of many farmers and residents of the dry west side of Cache Valley, helping the region remain a strong agricultural center for the state of Idaho.
