End of the Season

The helpful members from the Sandy Utah Central Stake volunteered this morning with end of season clean up by helping clean out the remaining grow boxes, removing the remaining weed cloth from the field and general clean up and organization of the garden and building.

Butternut squash was taken to the Bishop's Storehouse.

To date this season, the Sandy Utah Vegetable Project has provided over 28,000 lbs of produce for the Bishop's Storehouse.

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.
