Sweet Dumplings in the House!

Sweet dumplings are in the house! Harvested a sweet load last night. And our concord grapes are starting to turn purple. They will sweeten up once we get a good chill in a month or so.

Tomatoes & More!

We loved seeing so many volunteers from the Salt Lake Big Cottonwood and Draper UT Mountain Point Stakes last night! We had another big harvest with all their help. We hauled in lots of corn, tomatoes, squash, and cucumbers. Thanks everyone!!

Elder Goodrich's Family Comes to Visit

Elder Goodrich's family came to see him at the farm last night. Here he is with his grandkids, wife, and daughter. The kids all loved seeing what grandpa does at the farm. Elder Goodrich does soooo many things...from helping plow the field with the tractor, to growing corn, planting and harvesting lots of other field crops, fixing water issues, weeding the field, and just about anything that needs to be done. He is a true "can-do" person and we have been lucky to have him serving here at the farm the past two years.

Draper Eastridge Stake Rocks!

The Draper Eastridge Stake was awesome tonight!!! We think there were around 72 people who showed up. We are extremely grateful, especially since the other stake assigned was a no-show. So tonight we had most everyone on harvest duty in one form or another. Volunteers either picked, washed, sorted, or de-wormed the veggies. Everyone worked so well together. Our director, Brother Boulton, was so impressed with our harvest tonight saying we got a little of everything. That's right! We had over 900 pounds that we delivered to the bishops storehouse. Our biggest haul this season. Thank you!!
