Take a Trip to the Staheli Family Farm

The Staheli Family Farm is a 350 acre family farm that is situated in Washington, Utah. The property was established in the year 1889 by Frank Staheli Sr. who hailed from Switzerland and was a vegetable farmer.

Frank is also said to be one of the first mayors in the city of Washington, Utah. And aside from being a Mayor, he is also an agricultural pioneer who is known to have built the first ever rock irrigation ditches in the state of Utah.

Right now, the farm hosts group parties and other events. Visitors can also indulge on some adventures and explore some attractions within the farm, such as the Corn Maze, Field of Screams, Live Nativity, as well as the Farm Camp.

History of the Farm

Everything that you will see in the farm now is a result of the hard work and dedication of Frank Staheli Sr. As mentioned, Frank was responsible for the first ever primary irrigation system in Utah and such is still being used in the farm today.

Over the years, the farm was used for various agricultural experiments, including a university extension program. The farm has certainly played an important role in the agricultural history of St. George and Washington, Utah. The farm has primarily produced alfalfa, sugar beets, as well as beef.

Furthermore, the farm hosts an average of 30,000 corn maze visitors yearly, and that’s in the month of October alone. Visitors to the farm will certainly be treated to the scenic views and rich history of the Staheli Family Farm.
