Season Beginnings

Today we started distributing shares to our CSA customers at SoDa row in Daybreak. It's great to start eating some fresh produce again after the winter "fast". For ideas on how to cook the produce you are receiving please see the "RECIPES" tab above. Thanks for your support of our first CSA program.

We plan to open the Farm Stand on Saturday July 9th when we will begin selling our produce to the general public. Stay tuned!!

Spring Fever on the Farm

See TABS above for more information about our spring farm offerings
More PREMIUM LOCAL BEEF Last year we started making local, naturally raised and responsibly processed beef available to the public. This beef is hormone and antibiotic free and as wholesome as it gets. This year we are offering both grass-fed and grain-finished beef in many different packages in hopes that it will fit into anyones lifestyle and budget. For more information and pricing CLICK HERE.	Our first CSA Offering: SOLD OUT FOR 2011!! Thanks! CSA or Community Supported Agriculture is a program that helps foster a closer relationship between a farmer and the consumer. In this system one buys "shares" in the upcoming season's crops and the farmer provides them with a weekly box of whatever is in season. We are only offering 25 shares this year to get our feet wet at this new and exciting farm program. Shares include 16 weeks of produce for $225. For more informationCLICK HERE.	GARDENING MADE EASY Are you watching the news lately? Have you been feeling like it might be time to learn to produce your own food? Have you read the article in the March Ensign about gardening? Do you want to have a garden but are stressed out at the thought of tackling such a project? Here at the farm we want to make it a bit easier. We will be offering 40 private garden plots for rent here on the farm this year. Farmer Luke does all the hard work for you. Your 200 sq ft plot comes tilled, fertilized and marked. All you have to do is choose what to plant and weed. We take care of the irrigation and clean up. At $85 thats a helluva deal! CLICK HERE for more info.	LITTLE FARMERS PRESCHOOL We are starting a preschool here on the farm beginning this August. The curriculum will incorporate farm life into a school readiness program. This is a great chance to expose your kids to a love for all kinds of learning and instill in them values and knowledge that will better prepare them for elementary school, and the school of life. We are very excited that we have already filled our 2011-2012 school year and are now adding to a waiting list. Stay tuned for more educational programs cropping up on the farm as we continue to expand upon our vision of a "community farm experience". Follow the preschool atlittlefarmerspreschool.com.

The first frost of winter will arrive tonight. Our pickers have been working hard to bring the remaining produce from the field into our farm stand. We currently have an abundance of bell peppers, chile peppers, winter squash, eggplant, cucumbers, and apples.

There are only 4 days left until we close for the season! Saturday, October 30th is our last day and we need to sell EVERYTHING before we close.

This is your last chance to purchase our Premium Local Ground Beef for only $3.39 per pound.

Wednesday, Thursday, & Friday receive 50% off of our produce! (excluding pumpkins, processed food, honey & beef)

Saturday only ALL PUMPKINS are $1.00!

We appreciate your business. It has been a great season. See you in 2011!
