Native Bees and the Emergence of “Pollinator Districts” in Boulder County
Native Bees and the Emergence of “Pollinator Districts” in Boulder County
This program will provide an overview of the diversity and ecology of native bees in Boulder County. Wild bees play an integral role in both natural and agroecosystems. Understanding the impacts of human environmental change on wild bee communities is thus paramount to agriculture and bee conservation.
Haystack Farm Field Day
Haystack Farm Field Day
Join Mad Agriculture’s Director of Stewardship, Clark Harshbarger, as he takes us through a geologic history of the Left Hand Valley and Haystack Mountain. To highlight the day's events, we will spend time identifying and describing inherent and dynamic soil properties, such as the soil’s horizons, aggregates, organic matter content and porosity in a soil pit at Haystack Farm.
Boulder Farmers Market
Boulder Farmers Market
Join Boulder County Farmers Market in the heart of downtown Boulder on 13th Street (between Canyon and Arapahoe) for the longest market season in the state of Colorado. Our Boulder markets on Wednesday and Saturday offer the very best of the season—from farm fresh produce to locally raised meat, poultry, and eggs. You can also load up on bread and baked goods, plants and flowers, and Colorado-crafted specialty and ready-to-eat foods from our great vendors.
Longmont Farmers Market
Longmont Farmers Market
Long before Longmont was know as a bustling tech center, it was sustained by thousands of acres of farmland — starting with the establishment of a flour mill in 1887, and later with the vegetable cannery built in 1889. These days, Longmont farms provide much more than just sugar beets, and preserved farm land in Longmont and beyond helps fill our market with fresh, seasonal vegetables, dairy products, and Colorado-raised meats. We’re proud to be a growers-only market, meaning every product at the Longmont Farmers Market is created locally and sold by the vendors who produce it.
