Utah, part of the U.S. Southwest, is a land of diversity when it comes to both its geography and its farming. There are 18,200 farms, covering 11 million acres of land, with the average farm size totaling 677 acres.

Cattle, pork and mutton make up almost 70% of the state’s farm sales. Surprisingly, the state ranks high nationally for tart cherries, apricots, sweet cherries and… mink.

The homesteader philosophy you will find with these Utah farm stays will take you back in time to the original regenerative farms of the pioneers who came to these lands in wagon trains to settle.
