Agritopia also has a subscription based Farm Box program that delivers fresh produce weekly to seven locations across the Valley for customer pick up.
“This is the freshest produce that you will find in the Valley,” Davis said. “We grow 45 different fruits and vegetables on this farm, and every week this box changes, because every week what we’re growing on the farm changes, it changes with the season.
“In order to buy local, you have to learn how to eat local too. So you have to understand that on this farm in the winter time, you can get anything you need for a salad. But in the summertime, that’s not going to be possible..to get salad fresh from the farm,” she added.
Just behind the farmland, next to Gilbert Christian School, is Clearwater Agritopia, the assisted senior living facility. William noted that typically such facilities are located in isolated areas, but at Agritopia, it was planned to be near the main family homes.
“It’s important for the longevity of a human being, but also, I think that oftentimes as people age, they’re kind of forgotten, and that’s not how life should work,” he said.
