Phil Noble on Sage Mountain Farm and food diversity

Published: Sept. 13, 2017, 1 p.m.

Phil and Juany Noble own and operate Sage Mountain Farm, where they are an active part of the organic food revolution that is sweeping across the country. Starting with a small garden, they ended up having some extra produce; not wanting to let anything go to waste they decided to sell it at the local farmer's market.  When locals asked for more and more produce, they decided to become regulars at the market and thus Sage Mountain Farm was born.  All of their fruits and vegetables are grown on the family farm using sparkling clean natural well water and healthy organic processes. At the high desert property, they also use organic guidelines to raise steers, chickens and pigs. Motivated by their passion for bringing produce to the marketplace, and their love for the outdoors and farming, they planted fruit trees, fenced of the property and purchased some of the land adjacent to their original 5 acres. They now own multiple properties and have started Sage Mountain Beef, where they also offer green-fed beef and pork, for purchase or as part of their beef CSA program.  Find out more at www.sagemountainfarm.com.
