We ran into our old pal Joe at the noted locavore restaurant, Nosh, in Colorado Springs this past weekend. The Peak To Plains Alliance was celebrating all things local and consumable with a benefit raising awareness and support for locavores. What’s a locavore? Glad you asked! A locavore is someone who eats primarily from their own backyard, frequenting businesses that support other local businesses. Visit the site http://www.peaktoplains.com/ for a list of events and to learn how you can register your goods and services.
Anyway, leading the locavore “round up” was our friend Joe Uveges! Joe is our local hippie/rock star whose CDs we include in our custom baskets. He’s got a real down-home, humorous approach to life and music. Check out Joe's site.
Together, with the local farmers, ranchers, and producers, we sang, laughed, danced and noshed the night away.

The fundraiser at Nosh was really fun and a learning experience for me, as the organizer. I hope that we can do more of these, and if anyone has input or other local entities that they feel should be involved in Peak to Plains and supporting local food, ag and tourism experiences, feel free to email me at info@peaktoplains.com.
Cheers! Michele
