About Us
Great Basin Basket is a partnership of Nevada farmers whose mission is to provide families with high-quality, seasonal produce grown on local, sustainable farms.
Farmer Rick Lattin of Lattin Farms is a fourth generation farmer, and most of the produce in your basket comes from his certified organic farm in Fallon. Rick is a leader in small farm agriculture sharing his knowledge and resources with other farmers. In addition to the Great Basin Basket CSA, Rick’s farm is host to an on-site bakery, corn maze and pumpkin patch in the fall, and Growers Market that is open six days a week during harvest season, carrying produce from several local farmers.
Member service manager Ann Louhela is the non-farmer in the group. She processes all the paperwork and takes care of administrative tasks so that Rick and the farmers can farm! She’s your contact person if you have questions, suggestions or a complaint, and she does her best to keep the website up-to-date. Veggies are her favorite food, and she loves the perks of working with farmers. Her grandkids love to visit her at Grannie Annie’s Apple Farm. She’s a wanna-be farmer.
Our Growers - Below are some of the farms that contribute to Great Basin Basket CSA. We partner with several farms that grow for us every year, and we purchase from others on an occasional basis. Quality is our number one criteria along with providing as much organically-grown produce as possible. We support small farms using earth-friendly growing practices.
