Don't Miss the First July Market
And just like that...it's July! The Dillon Farmers Market is now in the full swing of summer. The days are long and the sun is shinning brightly in the Rocky Mountains. The Colorado sun and warm days are the perfect recipe for new and delicious local produce including sweet corn, peaches, melon, beets and more. Check out the Colorado Proud Produce Calendar to see what's in season this month.
The Dillon Farmers Market will be open from 9 a.m. to 2 p.m. in Dillon Town Park on Friday, July 5.

Vendor Spotlight: Friends of the Dillon Ranger District
Each week we will be highlighting one of our Dillon Farmers Market vendors.
Friends of the Dillon Ranger District (FDRD) is a local non-profit who's mission is to partner with the White River National Forest’s Dillon Ranger District in Summit County to provide opportunities for the community to play a more active role in the sustainable management of the local forest and to enhance the experiences of all who recreate here. FDRD conducts high quality projects to build and maintain trails, plant new trees, promote watershed restoration and perform other services to sustain the Dillon Ranger District. With more than 60 volunteer projects within our National Forest each year, FDRD volunteers contribute thousands of hours maintaining and improving trails, planting trees, pulling invasive weeds, educating visitors, and much more. Find FDRD in booth number one all summer long.
