Fallon Food Hub

Our Mission

FALLON FOOD HUB is a non-profit organization that is working to bring local food distribution to Fallon by building a regional food system for Fallon and surrounding rural communities.

It is our VISION to create a gathering place in the heart of our historic downtown which provides an outlet/market for local farmers, local small food producers, and an emerging value-added sector.

HOW THE Online MARKET WORKS

  • Wednesday at 2 PM  the online market closes.
  • Thursday morning the farmers will deliver the products to the Fallon Food Hub for packaging.
  • Friday at 8 AM your products will be available for pickup.
  • The Fallon Food Hub will donate your perishable items to the Fallon Daily Bread if you forget to pick up your by 2 PM Saturday.

Why Buy Local?

  • Buying local tastes better and is more nutritious
  • Commercial produce is often a week old by the time it travels over 1,500 miles to get to supermarkets, often requiring preservatives.
  • Commercial produce is sometimes picked too early, making fruit, for example, hard and tasteless.
  • Locally grown food, on the other hand, is harvested at its peak in taste and nutrition for your immediate purchase.
  • Many local farmers offer the unique and flavorful heirloom varieties of produce they sell.
  • Buying local keeps the money in our community
  • Commercial food profits go to a middleman or giant business outside our community and state, whereas buying local keeps the money cycling here in our community, helping it to grow and prosper.
  • Buying fresh produce from local producers helps preserve local farms and our precious rural community.
  • Buying local ensures a safe and secure food
  • Getting to know our local food producers, their ethics, cultural heritage, and farming practices provides confidence in a safe supply of healthy food for our families.
  • Buying from local farmers helps renew rural, small-scale agriculture in our communities and helps guarantee a consistent flow of healthy food year round.

Sanford Ranch LLC

Superior quality beef on a family friendly budget.

We are enthusiastic and thrilled to share Sanford Ranch’s delicious beef to our customers. Our family-owned and operated ranch is located in the agriculture community of Fallon, Nevada. We are a family team, working side by side on our ranch where our meat products are raised locally, without the use of growth hormones, steroids, growth-promoting antibiotics, fillers, added coloring etc., and with access to pasture for their entire life. We feel this provides ultra-fresh and wholesome food to share with your family. Our focus is to provide superior quality beef on a family-friendly budget. We understand the desire to feed your family high-quality, nutritious meat without breaking the bank.

Ranching has become a tradition in our family with three generations involved! Sanford Ranch started in 1996 with “Big D”, “Gerbil”, and their two sons raising Black Angus Beef in the Northern Nevada area. “Big D” earned his name since we tease him about his size and D for Dad, but now most days he mostly goes by Grandpa. “Gerbil” earned her name since she is always on the move, small and inquisitive, but she enjoys being called “grammy grammy grammy” now.

Big D and Gerbil’s sons, Mike and Joe, both went away for school but came back to ranching with their own families in tow! Mike’s wife, Dani, is from Reno and her days are spent wrangling children, organizing steaks, washing jeans, and making buffets for the ranch crew. Joe met Chelsea unexpectedly in Las Vegas. She met and fell in love with a rugged cowboy. Now she lives in the middle of nowhere on a working cattle ranch and is always chipping dried manure from her high heels and taking their son and daughter on tractor rides.

Thank you for supporting local agriculture and we look forward to sharing a steak with you!
