About the town:

Fountain Green greets you as you top Salt Creek Canyon from Nephi. It began as a popular campground for Salt Creek and San Pitch travelers during the 1850’s before the Johnson’s and other families from Santaquin in Utah Valley settled it. Lying just below the Divide and Mt. Nebo, it had a green fountain “BIG SPRINGS” second to no other spring in the Sanpete Valley.

The annual Lamb Days celebration in July draws people from all over. Activities include: Co-ed softball tournaments, youth lamb show and judging, mutton and sourdough dinner, youth talent show, fun run, chuckwagon breakfast, craft fair, parade, and fireworks.

Fountain Green is a city in Sanpete County, Utah, United States. The population was 945 at the 2000 census. According to the United States Census Bureau, the city has a total area of 1.4 square miles
