Northwest Colorado Branding Project

The Northwest Colorado Branding Project builds recognition for exceptional regionally made products, their producers, and Northwest Colorado industries in general. The project is a grassroots effort of individuals from throughout Northwest Colorado including the counties of Routt, Rio Blanco and Moffat. A workshop was held on November 10, 2004 in which over 40 interested citizens convened to share ideas and thoughts.

This site is intended to assist in furthering the sharing of information and resources in an effort to encourage regional value-added products. The effort is continuing to grow through the formation of committees and tasks to turn the workshop ideas into action. We're looking for more energetic folks to help with this effort! A discussion "blog" is on this site on the Community Forum.
