Activities
The Gunnison Valley Producers' Guild holds monthly meetings for voting members (Agricultural Producers) and special events for non-voting members (Co-Producers). Events include Spring Plant Sales, Poetry Slam, Farm Tours, Fermentation Fest, group-buy opportunities, speaker's meetings, and Potluck Dinners. Go Local Food!
Farm-to-Table for the People!
Our monthly fall Farm-to-Table for the People Potluck Dinners bring backyard gardeners, farmers, and local foodies together to share our bountiful harvests. At $5 per person ($10 per family) it's a great way to eat delicious local food. (August - October)
Spring Plant Sales
The Gunnison Valley Producers' Guild hosts one or two plant sales each spring. As local farmers, we know what varieties grow well in our valley and we raise the hardiest seedlings for our farms and your garden. The 2019 plant sales will be held at the Fred Field Center and are a great opportunity for local gardeners to find unique seedlings for vegetable gardening success!
