Eagle River Coalition and Colorado Water Trust invite you to join Water, Drought, and the Future of Agriculture in the West on Tuesday, April 14th at Walking Mountains in Avon. This community conversation will bring together agricultural producers, water experts, and conservation leaders to explore how drought, climate pressures, and changing water demands are shaping agriculture locally in the Eagle River Valley and across Colorado. Panelists will share practical solutions, lessons from the field, and opportunities for collaboration that support both working lands and healthy rivers. Whether you care about farming, water, and/or the future of Western communities, this discussion offers a chance to learn, connect, and engage.
Part of Climate Action Week. Light refreshments will be provided. This is a free event, but donations are welcome ($10 suggested) and will be split between Eagle River Coalition and Colorado Water Trust.
