Come tour Early Morning Orchards on July 10!
We’re very pleased to announce the next tour in “Family To Farm,” this year’s series of Western Colorado Alliance farm tours. Our next visit will happen on Wednesday, July 10 at 9 am, when we return to see our friends at Early Morning Orchards!
Early Morning Orchards is a four-season, regenerative vegetable farm, stone fruit orchard, and land-based education program. That means they grow high-quality produce on six acres in Palisade, and their nine acres of stone fruit trees include peaches, apricots, nectarines, and more. Come see how the next generation is advancing local farming at Early Morning Orchards!
This is the third of seven farm tours planned in four counties this year between now and October. Our Alliance’s annual farm tours have become a popular draw over the past two years. They offer a great view into how some of our local farms are quietly revolutionizing agriculture in the area. We hope you’ll join us on this visit to Early Morning Orchards on July 10!
