The Work Before the Wind Event

The good members from the Sandy Utah Central Stake, Sandy Utah Cottonwood Creek Stake and the Sandy Utah Crescent South Stake and the helpful service missionaries were busy this evening.

Lettuce was harvested! The field was raked in order to remove more dirt clumps. Field weed barriers had additional anchors installed against the strong winds expected tomorrow. Weeding occurred in many of the growboxes.

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.
