At our Colorado Ranch we conduct from two hour long general Ranch tours for children & adults to four or more hour long “hands on” tours that include feeding nutritional “cookies” to our Heritage Highlands to rain garden, low tunnel & raised bed gardening tips to calf petting tours. Following our crop harvests we also regularly process some of the fresh vegetables and fruits from our lands into Mason jar filled fruits, vegetables, jellies and jams.Ĭombining all of the above, we also conduct a variety of teaching programs & Ranch tours for adults, children and schools.
