COLORADO FARM TO TABLE
(719) 539-6627 Chaffee County Public Health strives to elevate community health through immunization against communicable disease, health promotion, health protection and emergency preparedness. We would like to take a moment and thank Chaffee County Public Health for their tireless efforts throughout this past year and half. It was not an easy feat to follow the guidelines and restrictions put in place but we did our part for the wellbeing of the community and persevered. We have been impressed with Public Health’s organization and quick responses under high levels of stress, as well as effectively communicating guidelines as best they could. Thank you to all at Chaffee County Public Health for helping us navigate through this incredibly difficult pandemic. Your hard work did not go unnoticed.
(719) 207-2737 In 1996, career farmer Tony Madone, Jr. started a two acre plot in Salida. A lifelong friend suggested that Tony donate the produce he raised there to soup kitchens and food banks. It felt right to provide individuals and families in need with fresh produce at no cost to them. That mission continues today. In 2006, Colorado Farm to Table became a non-profit corporation. The prior year, Tony moved the farm operation to its current location on Highway 291 in Salida, growing vegetables on ten of the site’s available 15 acres. Use of this land was donated by the Shine’s, a local farming family. Colorado Farm to Table plants, harvests, and distribute as much fresh produce as possible. Distribution covers much of Colorado including Salida, Buena Vista, Montrose, Alamosa, Leadville, Gunnison, Fairplay, Canon City, Westcliffe, Saguache, Fountain, Pueblo, Colorado Springs, metropolitan Denver, and Northern Colorado.
