Upcoming Event: 4th Annual (Virtual) Harvest Dinner!
Coldharbour Institute's 4th Annual Harvest Dinner is going Virtual! On September 19th from 4-6pm, we're bringing our community of supporters a fun evening full of entertainment, sustainability information, cooking, and recreation tips. This year has been tough on our little organization, as it has for so many, and we need your support to continue our work in helping to make our community more sustainable, especially in the face of change.
We are aiming to raise $10,000 for the development of our homestead and we need your help! Generous donors will receive Coldharbour Institute swag and be entered in raffles to win prizes such as pottery, paintings, food, and more!
Attendance is free but any amount that you are able to donate is greatly appreciated! Follow our social media accounts @Coldharbourinstitute for updates on the event. We will be streaming the event via Facebook, LinkedIn, and YouTube.
Thank you to all of our artists, tip-givers, board members, and fellows who have made this event possible!

Riverwatch Citizen Science
Visit our Research Blog to see an update on our new partnership with RiverWatch Colorado. Beginning in March 2020, our fellows have launched a new citizen science initiative to monitor the water health on the Tomichi Creek as it flows through the Coldharbour Ranch. Fellows and community volunteers collect water samples and conduct testing each month. This is a cost effective, engaging, and long-term data set that supports our work to contribute to a healthy watershed. Visit the blog to learn more and find opportunities to get involved. |
Congrats to our Graduate Fellows!
I would like to take a moment to recognize the six Coldharbour Clark Fellows who graduated May 2020 with their Masters in Environmental Management from Western Colorado University. Ashley Merkel, Alexia Cooper, Hannah Schaefer Tibbet, Sam Liebl, Malcolm MacLeod, and Will Shaw. Each of these fellows have worked with Coldharbour for the last two years helping to build our programs, research, and organizational capacity. To say it has been an honor to work alongside these amazingly passionate and smart humans is an understatement, to say the least. I can't wait to see the wonderful things these folks do as they move into their careers, post-graduate school. Sincerely, MJ Pickett, Executive Director |
