Colorado Proud
Watch for the Colorado Proud logo when shopping at grocery stores, farmers' markets, garden centers, or restaurants. By buying locally grown, raised, and processed food and agricultural products, you'll access high-quality fresh produce and support Colorado's economy and local farmers, ranchers, greenhouses, manufacturers, and processors in your area.
October is Farm to School Month!
This year, Colorado Proud and the Colorado Department of Education are working together to celebrate our local agricultural heritage and teach healthy eating habits all October 2025 long. About 35,000 farms and ranches covering 30 million acres produce the fruits, vegetables, whole grains, lean meats and low-fat dairy products that are an essential part of every student’s nutrition, helping fuel their scholastic success. Colorado agriculture also provides 195,000 jobs and contributes $47 billion to the state economy annually, making it the second largest industry in the state.
