It's How We Roll

Reliable and trustworthy volunteers from the Sandy Utah Central Stake and the Draper Utah Eastridge Stake assisted missionaries with planting pumpkins from seed. Missionaries and volunteers harvested cabbage, cucumbers, zucchini, and three types of squash. Volunteers also weeded between the grow boxes.
Accumulating vegetable total for the Sandy Vegetable Project to date is 776 lbs.

About Us

The Sandy Vegetable Project was started in 1978 by members of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints as a church welfare farm. The vegetables grown at this farm are sent to the Bishop's Storehouse in Sandy, UT, or to the Utah Food Bank. There are 20+ volunteer service-missionaries called to work at the farm each harvest season from spring until fall. The missionaries oversee the many volunteers who come from 44 stakes around the valley to help with the work. During the 2017 season, more than 42,000 pounds of vegetables were harvested at the farm for the bishop's storehouse.
