Hello August!
We are officially over halfway through market season! The past nine weeks have been filled with sunny days and tasty treats. There are still six more market Fridays, so come down to Town Park and enjoy one of Colorado's largest outdoor markets.
This Friday Friends of the Dillon Ranger District educators will bring their collection of animal pelts, scats and tracks to explore how animals have specific adaptations to survive and thrive in the Colorado Rockies. Play games and get moving as we learn about the local wildlife. There will also be materials for arts and crafts. The goal of this program is to provide a sensory experience to learn more about local wildlife. Participants will learn about the specific adaptations of local wildlife and, additionally, kids will make the connection between the adaptations that humans make living in the high country to the adaptations that animals make.

Vendor Spotlight: Forte Fruits
Each week we will be highlighting one of our Dillon Farmers Market vendors.
Colorado farm fresh fruit from Palisade. They produce dozens of varieties of plums, pluots and peaches. If it's a little different, it's in their orchard, this way they keep their stands interesting and unique. Find Forte Fruits in booth spaces 48, 49 and 50.
