It's no secret, most of us would like to stay in our own home as we age. Yet, sometimes our loved ones just need a little extra help to remain comfortable at home. That's where Always Best Care can help....we are dedicated to exceeding expectations....always.
They say that your golden years are the best years of your life. For most older Americans, that's how it should be - a time to relax, reflect, and live life in a familiar place. After all, senior citizens in the U.S. have worked tirelessly to build a better economy, serve their communities, and raise families.
However, as seniors grow older, completing daily tasks like showering and enjoying activities such as visiting Lehi Fort Wall, Southeast in Lehi, UT gets harder without someone by their side. Unfortunately, many older Americans aren't able to rely on their adult children for help. The reality in today's world is that family members do not have the skills or time to dedicate to caring for their parents. That's where Always Best Care Senior Services comes in.
Our in-home care services are for people who prefer to stay at home as they grow older but need ongoing care that family or friends cannot provide. More and more older adults prefer to live far away from long-term, institutionalized facilities and closer to the place where they feel most comfortable - their home. Home care in Lehi, UT is a safe, effective way to give your loved ones the care they need when they need it the most.

Home is where the heart is. While that saying can sound a tad cliche, it is especially true for many seniors living in America. When given a choice, older adults most often prefer to grow older at home. An AARP study found that three out of four adults over the age of 50 want to stay in their homes and communities as they age.
When you begin to think about why, it makes sense. Home offers a sense of security, comfort, and familiarity.
The truth is, as we age, we begin to rely on others for help. When a family is too busy or lives too far away to fulfill this role, in-home senior care is often the best solution. Home care services allow seniors to enjoy personal independence while also receiving trustworthy assistance from a trained caregiver.
At Always Best Care, we offer a comprehensive range of home care services to help seniors stay healthy while they get the help they need to remain independent. As your senior loved one gets older, giving them the gift of senior care is one of the best ways to show your love, even if you live far away.
To give our senior clients the best care possible, we offer a full spectrum of in-home care services:
If your senior loved one has specific care needs, our personal care services are a great choice to consider. Personal care includes the standard caregiving duties associated with companion care and includes help with tasks such as dressing and grooming. Personal care can also help individuals with chronic conditions like diabetes.
Common personal care services include assistance with:
Sometimes, seniors need helpful reminders to maintain a high quality of life at home. If you or your senior has trouble with everyday tasks like cooking, our home helper services will be very beneficial.
Common home helper care services include assistance with:
Using this kind of care is a fantastic way to make life easier for you or your senior loved one. At Always Best Care, our talented caregivers often fill the role of a companion for seniors. That way, older adults can enjoy their favorite local activities, such as visiting Dry Creek Park in Lehi, UT with friends while also receiving the care they need daily or weekly.
Common companionship services include:
According to AARP, more than 53 million adults living in the U.S. provide care to someone over 50 years old. Unfortunately, these caregivers experience stress, exhaustion, and even depression. Our respite care services help family caregivers address urgent obligations, spend time with their children, and enjoy nearby activities. Perhaps more importantly, respite care gives family members time to recharge and regroup. Taking personal time to de-stress reduces the risk of caregiver burnout. So, if you've always wanted to eat at the local Tepanyaki or visit Lehi Fort Wall Northwest, don't feel bad. Doing so is great for both you and your loved one.
At the end of the day, our goal is to become a valuable part of your senior's daily routine. That way, we may help give them the highest quality of life possible. We know that staying at home is important for your loved one, and we are here to help make sure that is possible.
If you have been on the fence about non-medical home care, there has never been a better time than now to give your senior the care, assistance, and companionship they deserve.
Always Best Care in-home services are for older adults who prefer to stay at home but need ongoing care that friends and family cannot provide. In-home care is a safe, effective way for seniors to age gracefully in a familiar place and live independent, non-institutionalized lives. The benefits of non-medical home care are numerous. Here are just a few reasons to consider senior care services from Always Best Care:
According to AARP, 9 out of 10 seniors prefer to age in place within the comfort of their own home. With in-home care, seniors have a way to stay at home, receive the care they need, and maintain a sense of independence, improving overall wellness.
If you or a member of your family have assumed the role of caregiver for your senior loved one, you know how stressful the job can be. Between caregiver burnout and constant worry, being a family caregiver is hard. In-home care relieves your burden and gives you peace of mind knowing that your older family member is in expert hands.
Unlike nursing homes, where the staff and residents rotate frequently, seniors can foster new friendships and build bonds with their caregiver. Seniors who socialize on a regular basis are often happier, which fosters positivity and leads to increased wellbeing.
No two seniors need the same kind of in-home care assistance. That is why each of our Care Plans is tailored to meet our client's individual needs. We offer plans that cover everything from light housekeeping to more involved duties like transportation to doctor's appointments. Our Care Coordinators will work closely with you to develop a personalized plan to ensure your senior's needs are exceeded.
Always Best Care offers a full array of care options for patients at all levels of health. With our trusted elderly care services, your loved one will receive the level of care necessary for them to enjoy the highest possible quality of life.

While it's true that some seniors have complicated medical needs that prevent them from staying at home, aging in place is often the best arrangement for seniors and their families. With a trusted caregiver, seniors have the opportunity to live with a sense of dignity and do so as they see fit - something that is unavailable to many older people today.
In-home care makes it possible for millions of seniors to age in place every year. Rather than moving to a strange nursing home, seniors have the chance to stay at home where they feel the happiest and most comfortable.
How much does a senior's home truly mean to them?
A study published by the American Society on Aging found that more than half of seniors say their home's emotional value means more than how much their home is worth in monetary value. It stands to reason, then, that a senior's home is where they want to grow old.
With the help of elderly care in Lehi, UT, seniors don't have to age in a sterilized care facility. Instead, they can age gracefully in the place they want to be most: their home. In contrast, seniors who move to a long-term care facility must adapt to new environments, new people, and new systems that the facility implements. At this stage in life, this kind of drastic change can be more harmful than helpful.
Institutional care facilities like nursing homes often put large groups of people together to live in one location. On any given day, dozens of staff members and caregivers run in and out of these facilities. Being around so many new people in a relatively small living environment can be dangerous for a seniors' health and wellbeing. When you consider that thousands of seniors passed away in nursing homes during the COVID-19 pandemic, opting for in-home care is often a safer, healthier choice for seniors.
Aging in place has been shown to improve seniors' quality of life, which helps boost physical health and also helps insulate them from viral and bacterial risks found in elderly living facilities.
For many seniors, the ability to live independently with assistance from a caregiver is a priceless option. With in-home care, seniors experience a higher level of independence and freedom - much more so than in other settings like a nursing home. When a senior has the chance to age in place, they get to live life on their own terms, inside the house that they helped make into a home. More independence means more control over their personal lives, too, which leads to increased levels of fulfillment, happiness, and personal gratification. Over time, these positive feelings can manifest into a healthier, longer life.
More independence, a healthier life, and increased comfort are only a few benefits of aging in place. You have to take into consideration the role of cost and convenience. Simply put, it's usually easier and more affordable to help seniors age in place than it is to move them into an institutional care facility. According to the US Department of Housing and Urban Development, seniors who age in the comfort of their homes can save thousands of dollars per month.
In-home care services from Always Best Care, for instance, are often less expensive than long-term solutions, which can cost upwards of six figures per year. To make matters worse, many residential care facilities are reluctant to accept long-term care insurance and other types of payment assistance.
With Always Best Care's home care services, seniors and their families have a greater level of control over their care plans. In-home care gives seniors the chance to form a bond with a trusted caregiver and also receive unmatched care that is catered to their needs. In long-term care facilities, seniors and their loved ones have much less control over their care plan and have less of a say in who provides their care.
In-home care is a valuable resource that empowers seniors to age in place on their own terms. However, a big concern for many families and their loved ones is how much in-home care costs. If you're worried that in-home care is too expensive, you may be pleasantly surprised to learn that it is one of the most affordable senior care arrangements available.
Typically, hiring an Always Best Care in-home caregiver for a few hours a week is more affordable than sending your loved one to a long-term care facility. This is true even for seniors with more complex care needs.
At Always Best Care, we will work closely with you and your family to develop a Care Plan that not only meets your care needs, but your budget requirements, too. Once we discover the level of care that you or your senior need, we develop an in-home care plan that you can afford.
In addition to our flexible care options, families should also consider the following resources to help offset potential home care costs:
When you or your senior loved one needs assistance managing daily tasks at home, finding a qualified caregiver can be challenging. It takes a special kind of person to provide reliable care for your senior loved one. However, a caregiver's role involves more than meal preparation and medication reminders. Many seniors rely on their caregivers for companionship, too.
Our companion care services give seniors the chance to socialize in a safe environment and engage in activities at home. These important efforts boost morale and provide much-needed relief from repetitive daily routines. A one-on-one, engaging conversation can sharpen seniors' minds and give them something in which to be excited.
At Always Best Care, we only hire care providers that we would trust to care for our own loved ones. Our senior caregivers in Lehi, UT understand how important it is to listen and communicate with their seniors. A seemingly small interaction, like a short hug goodbye, can make a major difference in a senior's day. Instead of battling against feelings of isolation, seniors begin to look forward to seeing their caregiver each week.
Understanding the nuances of senior care is just one of the reasons why our care providers are so great at their job.
Unlike some senior care companies, our caregivers must undergo extensive training before they work for Always Best Care. In addition, our caregivers receive ongoing training throughout the year. This training ensures that their standard of care matches up to the high standards we've come to expect. During this training, they will brush up on their communication skills, safety awareness, and symptom spotting. That way, your loved one receives the highest level of non-medical home care from day one.
While it's true that many seniors prefer to age at home, sometimes in-home care isn't the best fit. For those seniors and their families, choosing an assisted living facility makes more sense. Unfortunately, finding the optimal care facility is easier said than done in today's day and age. That's when Always Best Care's assisted living referral services begin to make a lot of sense.
Assisted living is a form of housing intended for seniors who require varying degrees of medical and personal attention. Accommodations may include single rooms, apartments, or shared living arrangements. Assisted living communities are typically designed to resemble a home-like environment and are physically constructed to encourage the independence of residents.
At assisted living communities, seniors receive help with daily activities such as bathing, dressing, and eating. They may also benefit from coordination of services with outside healthcare providers, and monitoring of resident activities to ensure their health, safety, and well-being. Caregivers who work at assisted living communities can also provide medication administration and personal care services for older adults.
Other services offered within assisted living communities can include some or all of the following:
At Always Best Care, our representatives can match your senior's emotional, physical, and financial needs with viable assisted living communities nearby. Results are based on comparative data, so you can select the best choice for you or your loved one.
Always Best Care works closely with local senior living communities to gain valuable knowledge that we then use to help seniors and their loved ones make informed decisions. This information can include basic care and rent, resident availability, and services provided. Because Always Best Care is compensated by these communities, we provide senior living referral services at no extra cost to you.
Some of the most popular assisted living communities to consider in our area include the following:
For many seniors, moving into a senior living community revolves around how and when they want to make a transition to more involved care. Some seniors are more proactive about transitioning to independent living. Others choose to remain home until their care needs or other requirements are satisfied. Remember - our staff is here to help. Contact our office today to learn more about assisted living communities and how we can find a facility that exceeds your expectations.
The first step in getting quality in-home care starts with a personal consultation with an experienced Always Best Care Care Coordinator. This initial consultation is crucial for our team to learn more about you or your elderly loved one to discover the level of care required. Topics of this consultation typically include:
A discussion of your needs and how our trained caregivers can offer assistance in the most effective way
A draft of your care plan, which includes highly detailed notes and a framework for the care that you or your senior will receive
Discuss payment options and help coordinate billing with your insurance provider
Our caregivers are trained to spot changes that clients exhibit, like mental and physical decline. As your trusted senior care company, we will constantly assess and update your Care Plan to meet any new emotional, intellectual, physical, and emotional needs.
If you have never considered in-home care before, we understand that you and your family may have concerns about your Care Plan and its Care Coordinator. To help give you peace of mind, know that every team member and caregiver must undergo comprehensive training before being assigned to a Care Plan.
At the end of the day, we only hire the best of the best at Always Best Care. Whether you need home care in Lehi, UT 24-hours a day or only need a respite for a couple of hours, we are here to serve you.
When you're ready, we encourage you to contact your local Always Best Care representative to set up a Care Consultation. Our Care Coordinators would be happy to meet with you in person to get to know you better, discuss your needs, and help put together a personalized Care Plan specific to your needs.

Lehi, Utah — October 15, 2026
As companies explore how to incorporate artificial intelligence into their operations, two Utah technology leaders offered a look at how they are applying AI to real-world business challenges.
Continuing its Demo Day series, AI Utah Demo Day brought together Allen Lowe, director of MX Labs at MX, and Brian Henson, AI platform lead at JobNimbus, for short presentations and a question-and-answer session over lunch at Pattern’s headquarters in Lehi on Friday, October 9. Hosted by Jon Bradshaw, founder of Codebase.com, the event aimed to strengthen connections across Utah’s AI community.
Lowe discussed how AI is changing software engineering and financial technology, while Henson demonstrated how JobNimbus uses AI to analyze customer conversations and identify patterns that can inform business decisions.
MX Labs: Refining AI Coding Workflows
Allen Lowe, director of MX Labs at MX, described how his team is using AI agents to accelerate software development—and what it learned when the approach began producing unnecessarily complicated code.
Lowe, a software engineer with nearly two decades of experience, initially resisted AI engineering because he worried the technology would replace him. His perspective changed after working with Claude at Shopify, where he recognized that software engineering was changing.
“I decided to just put my work boots on and get to work,” Lowe said.
At MX Labs, Lowe is working on AI applications for financial services, including an AI assistant intended to help banks and credit unions adopt modern technology while maintaining their customer relationships.
His presentation focused on "Bernstein," the moniker for an internal agent orchestration system his team uses to coordinate AI-assisted software development. Rather than having an engineer write code and review each change manually, Bernstein distributes work among agents responsible for writing, reviewing and revising code.
The process began as a manual experiment. Lowe and a colleague initially exchanged AI-generated changes and reviewed one another's work. When they realized the process could work, they built a system to automate much of the cycle, allowing agents to iterate before a human engineer reviews the proposed changes.
But automation introduced a new problem: the agents could produce code that passed tests and received multiple approvals while still being unnecessarily complex.
Lowe described a case in which an agent was asked to centralize environment-variable parsing—a relatively straightforward engineering task. Instead, it generated thousands of lines of code and introduced complexity the task didn't require.
The experience led Lowe to reconsider the workflow rather than simply blame the AI model. His team made three changes: instructing the author agent to make the smallest change possible, adding a dedicated reviewer to assess whether a solution was as simple as it could be, and allowing the reviser to reject review suggestions or defer them to future work rather than implementing every recommendation.
The lesson, Lowe said, was that producing functional code is not the same as producing good code. AI systems need to be guided toward simpler solutions, not merely encouraged to complete tasks.
Lowe said the share of merge requests that became smaller during review rose from roughly 1 percent to nearly 8 percent after his team adjusted the AI workflow to favor simpler code. He also described Bernstein as capable of generating dozens of merge requests in the time a single engineer might produce one, at a substantially lower direct cost per change.
Those comparisons illustrate the potential productivity gains, although the cost and throughput figures depend on what work is included and how quality is measured.
For Lowe, the larger challenge is to make AI agents useful engineering collaborators by building workflows that reward simplicity and quality, not just output.
JobNimbus: Using AI to Understand Customers
Brian Henson, AI platform lead at JobNimbus, demonstrated how the company is using AI and graph databases to turn customer conversations into structured information that can inform product and business decisions.
Henson said he initially felt apprehensive about AI while participating in an executive program at Brigham Young University. He ultimately decided to make learning the technology a priority.
“I made it into focus and like an intent there to say, hey, this is my chance. I’m in school. This is a new thing. I should be learning everything I can,” Henson said.
At JobNimbus, customer feedback influences the product roadmap, work prioritization and the allocation of resources. But with hundreds of customer conversations taking place across the company each day, collecting transcripts is not the same as systematically learning from them.
Henson's team is working to bridge that gap by extracting information from conversations and organizing it in a graph database. Unlike a conventional table-based structure, a graph connects related pieces of information, making it possible to explore relationships among customers, products, features, objections and business outcomes.
The process begins with entity extraction: identifying relevant information in a transcript and representing it as connected data. The team then analyzes relationships among those entities to identify recurring themes and patterns.
Henson said the initial approach relied on a single large language model (LLM) call to process a transcript. The team moved to a multi-step workflow that classifies the type of conversation before applying more targeted analysis. A sales call, for example, requires a different analytical approach from a customer onboarding or retention call.
The resulting graph can connect a product feature to the feedback customers provide about it, including sentiment and recurring objections. Henson demonstrated a visualization based on a sample of 47 calls, with larger nodes representing topics mentioned more frequently and color indicating positive or negative sentiment.
The graph can help teams look beyond an overall satisfaction score to investigate why customers respond as they do. A cluster of negative feedback, for example, could point to a product feature that customers struggle with or a related feature that isn't delivering the expected value.
Because the information is connected, teams can also explore related topics and trace patterns across customer conversations over time. That could help sales teams understand which responses are effective in addressing objections, while product teams could use the analysis to identify opportunities for improvement or investigate potential churn risks.
Henson also discussed how the company handles the challenge of grouping different terms that refer to the same underlying concept. His approach combines conventional code with LLM-based analysis where necessary, using clustering to reduce computational demands.
The broader objective is to make customer feedback more actionable. Rather than relying on individual anecdotes or manually reviewing transcripts, JobNimbus is exploring ways to identify patterns across large volumes of conversations and use those findings to support product, sales and customer-success decisions.
Practical Applications of AI
The two presentations illustrated different ways Utah companies are incorporating AI into their operations: MX Labs is exploring AI agents to change how financial services and software development work, while JobNimbus is using AI to extract actionable insights from customer conversations.
Both examples demonstrate that adopting AI involves more than choosing a model. Companies must also determine how to integrate the technology into existing workflows, manage the associated costs and translate its outputs into useful business decisions.

As residential and commercial development continues to reshape Lehi, Utah Trenchless is drawing attention to the growing importance of underground sewer and utility conditions across the community. The company reports increasing demand for sewer camera inspections and low-disruption repair methods as property owners work to keep pace with expansion and address aging or overburdened underground lines.
Lehi has become one of the fastest-changing areas in Utah County, with new neighborhoods, offices, and mixed-use projects adding pressure to existing infrastructure. As construction advances and older systems age, sewer and utility line problems can surface at unexpected times. Utah Trenchless notes that property owners are placing more value on clear diagnostics before any digging begins, along with repair options that limit the impact on landscaping, driveways, and surrounding surfaces.
The company addresses this need by leading with diagnostics rather than excavation. Utah Trenchless uses video camera inspection to identify issues such as root intrusion, sags, offsets, and cracks within a line, giving property owners a recorded view of the actual condition underground. When repairs are required, trenchless methods including pipe bursting and cured-in-place pipe lining allow the company to restore lines without extensive trenching, often completing work in a single day.
"Lehi is growing quickly, and that growth puts more attention on what is happening beneath the surface," said Spencer Ruff, co-owner of Utah Trenchless. "When a line problem appears, property owners want to know exactly what is wrong before anyone starts digging. A camera inspection lets them see the real condition of the pipe, and trenchless repair often lets us fix the issue without tearing up a driveway or a yard."
The timing of this Utah Trenchless Lehi service update reflects patterns the company has observed as more property owners look for alternatives to traditional excavation. During active development, driveways, mature landscaping, and hardscaping represent significant investments, and non-invasive repair approaches help preserve those surface features while resolving the underlying problem.
Ruff added that the diagnostic-first approach also supports property transactions, which have remained active throughout the region's expansion. "Buyers and sellers increasingly want a sewer inspection as part of the process," he said. "A quick, recorded look at the line gives everyone accurate information and fewer surprises after closing."
Utah Trenchless in Lehi serves residential and commercial properties throughout Utah County, Salt Lake County, Summit County, and Davis County. In addition to sewer camera inspections and trenchless repair, the company provides sewer line repair and replacement, water main and water line service, drain cleaning, septic service, air and hydro utility locating, and trenchless pipe lining. The company also works with real estate professionals to provide rapid sewer inspections during property transactions.
Utah Trenchless is a sewer and drain specialist company based in Lehi, Utah, founded by Spencer and Kourtney Ruff. The locally owned company focuses on honest guidance and advanced trenchless technology, and it holds an A+ rating with the Better Business Bureau.

LEHI, UT - October 09, 2026 - PRESSADVANTAGE -
As colder temperatures approach Utah County, North Star Heating & Air Conditioning is drawing attention to the heating-system warning signs that homeowners often overlook until a furnace fails during the coldest weeks of the year. The family-owned contractor is encouraging residents to recognize these early indicators now, while there is still time for inspection and service before winter demand peaks.
Heating systems frequently show subtle signals before a complete breakdown. According to the company, common signs include uneven heating between rooms, unusual noises such as banging or rattling when the system cycles on, a furnace that runs longer than normal to reach the set temperature, and a noticeable increase in energy use without a change in household habits. Yellow or flickering burner flames, frequent short cycling, and persistent dust or dry air can also indicate that a system needs attention.
Terry Kelsch of North Star Heating & Air Conditioning said many of these warning signs are easy to miss during the mild autumn months. "Furnaces tend to fail when they are working hardest, which is usually during the first real cold snap," Kelsch said. "When a homeowner notices strange sounds, uneven temperatures, or rising utility bills in the fall, those are often the system asking for attention before it stops working entirely."
Addressing concerns early is a central part of North Star Heating & Air Conditioning HVAC planning, which encourages seasonal maintenance rather than reactive emergency calls. The company recommends servicing a furnace in the fall and an air conditioner in the spring, allowing technicians to identify worn components, check safety controls, and confirm that a system is prepared for the season ahead. This approach can help extend equipment life and reduce the likelihood of a mid-winter failure.
For residents who have already noticed trouble, the company provides furnace repair in Lehi and surrounding communities, offering diagnostics intended to pinpoint performance issues before they escalate. North Star Heating & Air Conditioning furnace repair in Lehi covers a range of heating concerns, from inconsistent output to systems that no longer hold a steady temperature.
Kelsch added that heating preparation is part of a larger picture. "A furnace is one piece of a home comfort system," he said. "Looking at the equipment, the ductwork, and the overall airflow together helps a household stay comfortable and avoid surprises when the weather turns."
North Star Heating & Air Conditioning in Lehi serves Utah County, Salt Lake County, and communities along the Wasatch Front, including Alpine, Bluffdale, Draper, Eagle Mountain, Herriman, Orem, Lindon, Pleasant Grove, Riverton, Saratoga Springs, South Jordan, and Vineyard.
North Star Heating & Air Conditioning is a family-owned, second-generation HVAC contractor based in Lehi, Utah, with more than 30 years of experience serving the local community. The company provides heating and air conditioning installation and repair, duct cleaning, indoor air quality improvement, and seasonal maintenance for homes of all sizes.

The Collective at Morning Vista, a new 134,000-square-foot retail and dining destination anchored by the first and only Whole Foods Market in Utah County, is on track to open in late 2027.
Set along the Lehi foothills, The Collective broke ground in May 2026 at the northeast corner of Timpanogos Highway (SR-92) and Morning Vista Road, and site work is progressing steadily. More than 50% of the in-line space is already leased.
This landmark project is designed to enhance community life and connectedness at the heart of Silicon Slopes. The current tenant roster is led by Whole Foods Market, Sephora, Lovesac, Bamboo Sushi, PopUp Bagels, Solidcore, VIO Med Spa, Petfolk and Bohme.
Each brand was selected to create a cohesive experience that reflects the community it serves. Developed by CenterCal Properties in partnership with Utah-based Perry Commercial, The Collective will bring grocery, dining, fitness and lifestyle retail to one of the state's fastest-growing communities.
"The Collective at Morning Vista represents a meaningful investment in one of the country's most dynamic growth markets," said Jean Paul Wardy, co-founder and CEO of CenterCal Properties. "Lehi and the broader Silicon Slopes region continue to see extraordinary growth driven by a strong technology economy and an expanding residential base. From day one, our ambition has been to create something enduring, a place with a genuine architectural point of view, a highly curated tenant mix and community-centered design people feel connected to. With Perry Commercial as the ideal partner, we intend to deliver a legacy project the Lehi community will be proud of for generations."
Lehi has grown into one of Utah's largest cities, with more than 75,000 residents and a population up more than 25% since 2020, according to U.S. Census Bureau estimates. It also anchors northern Utah County's technology corridor, home to major employers such as Adobe, Microsoft and Oracle.
That combination of a fast-growing residential base and a large daytime workforce continues to drive demand for well-designed retail close to where people live and work. As the first and only Whole Foods Market in Utah County, The Collective will serve Lehi along with Highland, Alpine, American Fork and neighboring northern Utah County cities.
CenterCal's Utah portfolio includes Station Park in Farmington and Mountain View Village in Riverton. Those centers are known for their careful, considered design and place-making. When complete, The Collective will present a mid-century modern design of clean lines, warm natural materials and strong geometric forms, organized around a central plaza and fountain, a landscaped green and generous patios built for outdoor dining, community programming and everyday connection.
Additional tenants and construction milestones will be announced as work progresses. Brands, restaurateurs and business leaders interested in joining The Collective at Morning Vista can connect with its team, listed on the project website, www.thecollectivelehi.com.

LEHI, Utah (ABC4) — Utah County is set to get its first Whole Foods Market in 2027 as part of a massive new retail development that will include other new-to-Utah brands.
The Collective at Morning Vista is a new 134,000-square-foot retail and dining development in Lehi that is on track to open late 2027. It will become the home of Utah County’s first and only Whole Foods Market.
The project is located at the northeast corner of Timpanogos Highway (SR-92) and Morning Vista Road, and it broke ground on construction in May 2026.
There are currently only four Whole Foods Market locations in the entire state of Utah, and three of those four are located in Salt Lake City: Trolley Square, Sugar House, and Cottonwood Heights. The fourth location is in Park City. This new store will be Utah’s fifth, and the first one in Utah County.
In addition to Whole Foods, the Collective is expecting retail locations from Sephora, Lovesac, Solidcore, VIO Med Spa, Petfolk, and Bohme. It will also feature restaurants like Bamboo Sushi and PopUp Bagels.
The project was developed by CenterCal Properties in partnership with Utah-based real estate development company Perry Commercial.
“Lehi and the broader Silicon Slopes region continue to see extraordinary growth driven by a strong technology economy and an expanding residential base,” said Jean Paul Wardy, co-founder and CEO of CenterCal Properties. “From day one, our ambition has been to create something enduring, a place with a genuine architectural point of view, a highly curated tenant mix and community-centered design people feel connected to. With Perry Commercial as the ideal partner, we intend to deliver a legacy project the Lehi community will be proud of for generations.”
