Hatch is an unincorporated community in Caribou County, in the U.S. state of Idaho.[1]

History

The first settlement at Hatch was made in 1882, at which time the town site was within Bannock County[2] (Caribou County was not formed until 1919). A post office called Hatch was established in 1896, and remained in operation until 1934.[3] The community was named after Ransom Hatch, an early settler.[2]
