🎉What a wonderful Fall Harvest Festival Fundraiser! 🎉

We're still celebrating the success of this year's event, which brought together over 200 community members for a day of connection, fun, and supporting small businesses.😄

Our heartfelt thanks go to our presenting sponsor, Eagle County Conservation District, for making this event possible. We are also grateful to our 20 vendors, the businesses that generously donated to our silent auction, Full Belly BBQ for delicious catering, our talented musicians and petting zoo providers for keeping the energy high, and to everyone else who contributed their time and resources to bring this fundraiser to life.

Planning for next year is already underway, and we look forward to building on this year’s success! 🌱
