It’s Colorado Ag week! A week to celebrate agriculture and highlight all the good that agriculture brings to this incredible state. Each day we will be talking about Colorado Agriculture and some of Colorado Farm Bureau’s programs:

Monday, March 21: An Introduction to Colorado Agriculture

Agriculture is embedded in Colorado’s DNA. From the industry’s rich cultural heritage to its economic importance, agriculture is a defining feature of Colorado’s identity. Our farmers and ranchers play a critical role in producing our food, caring for our land, and ensuring that future generations can enjoy all that Colorado has to offer.

Tuesday, March 22: What CFB Does for You

Our members are what defines us. Truly a grassroots organization, the Colorado Farm Bureau is comprised of farmers, ranchers, and Coloradans from across the state – all of whom share a passion for agriculture and the benefits it brings to every corner of our state.

Wednesday, March 23: Ag Day at the Capitol

Each year, the Colorado Ag Council celebrates the farmers and ranchers who grow food and fiber around our state. This year, in partnership with the Colorado Department of Agriculture, there will be a few virtual panels and other events at the state Capitol.

Thursday, March 24: Highlighting Mental Health

Coloradans across the state face stress both on and off the farm. In an effort make mental health services more accessible, innovative programs are providing free, anonymous care for those that need it. The Colorado Farm Bureau is proud to play a role in bettering the lives of farmers, ranchers, and rural residents, and continues to strive for success in serving Colorado’s agriculture industry.
