Excerpts:
24-year-old Sharon Leopardi is the owner of Backyard Urban Garden (BUG) Farms, a community-supported agriculture (CSA) business that uses Salt Lake City residents’ backyards as places to grow, tend and harvest fresh produce to sell to consumers. Her goal in starting the business a little more than a year ago was to prove that people can make a living growing food — even in the city.
