Colorado Grain Chain is heading to Telluride! Come find us at the Telluride Blues & Brews Festival (September 18–20, 2026), nestled in one of Colorado's most iconic mountain towns. We'll be there alongside world-class music, Colorado craft beer, and breathtaking Rocky Mountain views. Come say hi, learn about locally grown grains, and taste what Colorado's fields have to offer. 

Stay tuned for more details coming soon! 

What does it take to build a stronger local grain economy? Join the Colorado Grain Chain and Flatirons Farmers Coalition for “Let's Talk Grain: Building Local Grain Resilience.”

This panel brings together farmers and local grain enthusiasts to explore the challenges and opportunities of building a robust regional grain system — from funding sources like CGC Microgrants to the relationships, infrastructure, and investment needed for long-term viability. 

We'll dig into key barriers (market access, equipment, space, existing contracts) and discuss how to plan for a resilient, adaptable future amid uncertainty  

Come early to mingle, stay for the panel discussion, and wrap up the afternoon with a happy hour. Small bites from local producers will be provided by Flatirons Farmers Coalition. Food and drinks will also be available for purchase from Dry Land Distillers.
