To participate, just snap a photo representing Carbondale (like Mount Sopris, outdoor recreation, downtown Carbondale, trail, restaurants and shopping, distilleries and breweries, lodging and more). Tag your photo with #VisitCarbondaleCO, and post it to Instagram, Facebook or Twitter. Be sure to caption your photo with what it is, where it was taken, etc. The best photos will be selected and shared on Visit Colorado’s Instagram account, and you’ll get photo credit.



CRMS plant sale

The Colorado Rocky Mountain School Organic Garden Learning Center will hold its yearly plant sale from 9 a.m. until 3 p.m. Saturday, May 16, and from 1-3 p.m. Sunday, May 17, at the school greenhouse, 500 Holden Way in Carbondale. CRMS students have been busy since January taking cuttings and starting seeds. This year’s organically grown selection is extensive, and all varieties have been selected for their suitability to the climate of the Roaring Fork Valley. Prices are reasonable and many varieties sell out, so it’s wise to arrive early. A complete plant list has been posted on the school’s website crms.org/plantsale/.
