local foods festival

The Local Foods Festival provides a fun, energetic and inspiring atmosphere for individuals and families to learn more about local food resources. Denver Botanic Gardens at Chatfield’s rural agricultural setting and historical richness are ideal for hosting this event focused on Colorado’s food heritage and culture.

Denver Botanic Gardens at Chatfield has teamed up with the Junior League of Denver (JLD), a nonprofit women’s organization, to bring you the second annual Local Foods Festival. The JLD works to improve the health and education of women and children in the Denver metro area.
