Organized by CDA & CSU Office of Engagement & Extension. Film produced by CO Farm Bureau.

A deep love for agriculture can be rewarding, joyful, and at times, painful. Producers aim to destigmatize mental health in rural Colorado. 

When a farmer and rancher is facing a crisis, it can create an emotional toll on every aspect of life. The agricultural community is pulling together to help each other navigate through stressful times.

Join us for an evening of camaraderie, food, and meaningful discussion around the mental health needs of the Durango/La Plata ag community!
