One of my Mormon co-workers assures me that non-Mormons are welcome as well. There will of course be proselytizing, but I’m not sure how aggressive it would be.

Maybe there wouldn't be proselytizing (boy, I'm glad I could copy your spelling on that one ). I have gone to a Family History Center at a local LDS Church to do genealogy research for years, and no one has ever said one word to me about their church. The LDS church has incredible genealogy resources, the best in the world, and anyone can use them, much for free and some for nominal costs.

I’m not so sure there would be any. While I’m not Mormon, I grew up in an area with a large LDS population. They’re good people who generally walk the talk. I think they also realize that one of their strongest proselytizing tools is to simply live their beliefs.

The service missionaries that work at the canneries are non-proselytizing missionaries. Last I heard they are not supposed to proselyte, but of course should answer questions if asked.

Last time I was at the Lindon Utah cannery, I don’t even remember seeing any pamphlets. Of course, the place is a cannery/warehouse type place. I finally bought the powdered milk I needed to bring me up to almost a years supply.

You would be very welcome to use the facilities. Many are also used to help local food banks and other charitable organizations.

I hardly think that anyone will be trying to convert you. Don't be afraid to check it out.
