Family farming for generations
Taylor Traditions Farm is a five-acre family farm in Grantsville, Utah, run by Patrick and Savannah Taylor. Patrick is a seventh-generation Utah farmer. The farm grows an acre of vegetables and raises cattle, pigs and chickens for beef, pork, chicken and eggs. Shop at the farm stand, the U-Pick garden, CSA boxes or online.
How did Taylor Traditions Farm start?
One day, a freshman city girl met an English major, and the rest is history. Turns out that city girl was once told she should marry a cowboy, and that English major was a seventh-generation farmer from right here in Utah. Fast forward 12 years to a construction management career, multiple moves across states, IVF, two kids, and a dog.
Looking at our kids and towards our future, it was time to return to his roots. Enter a five-acre homestead and farm in Grantsville, Utah. We have dedicated ourselves to building a small farm empire, and we want to feed our family as much from our land as possible. We have an acre garden, chickens for eggs and meat, pigs, and a budding orchard. Our goal is to share our traditions with you.
Best wishes, Patrick and Savannah Taylor
How do we farm?
The garden is grown with an organic approach: no pesticides or herbicides, fertilized mostly with manure from the farm's own animals, and watered by drip lines to save water in the Utah desert. The pigs and chickens live on pasture and rotate through paddocks.
Working toward a no-till garden
Our garden is working towards a no-till system. We are dedicated to an organic approach for our crops: we do not use pesticides or herbicides, and we use the cleanest fertilizers available, primarily the manure generated on the farm.
Drip irrigation for the desert
Our garden uses drip systems to conserve water in our desert. Every year, we plant staples and introduce new varieties and species of vegetables to refine our offerings to the best for our customers and the climate.
Pasture-raised pigs and chickens
Our pigs and chickens are raised on pasture, rotating between paddocks to support the biodiversity of the soil and plant life. That gives them fresh grazing and foraging for happy, healthy animals. Our feed comes from a local mill, so their diet is supplemented with fresh, quality feed.
