Rio Grande Farm Park Received Colorado Tree Coalition Grant for 20 New Trees
The Rio Grande Farm Park officially received a grant from the Colorado Tree Coalition for funds to plant around twenty new trees on our grounds. In collaboration with Colorado Forestry Service, we have selected the following species for planting: Osage Orange, Hackberry, Kentucky Coffeetree, Bur Oak, Northern Catalpa, Swamp White Oak, Princeton Elm, Allee Elm, Yellow Wood, Glens Pear, and Crabapple. Planting will happen later in the springtime – stay tuned in the coming months for information about an Earth Day or Arbor Day tree-planting celebration for 2026.
