How can you not love a company that has the mission statement that follows: ‘Our mission is to promote organic and sustainable farming and provide consumers with information they need to find the most delicious and nutritious local, seasonal foods available.’ That is what Pitchfork Pinups, Ltd is all about. They have done this with a stunning calendar for 2012.
Farmers of the Front Range is a 12 month wall calendar featuring faces that are familiar to many Farmer’s Markets fans. They are the farmers, photographed on the farms, with their farm equipment. This calendar gives you the opportunity to have a piece of the farm in your own kitchen. Each month we are treated to a great photograph by Darren Mahuron of a slice of farm life in the Northern Front Range of Colorado. The farmers have provided some insight to their farm operations and just what makes their farm special. Each month we are also treated to mouth-watering recipe.
Learn about the impact small organic farms are making on the Colorado food scene. Meat and poultry, dairy, mushrooms and honey are as much a part of our food as the fruits, vegetables and grains. These 12 farms produce all one needs for a healthy varied diet, and they are all within a very short drive of the Denver area. The featured farms are listed here and linked with web pages.

The great thing about this calendar is that the after tax profits go back to the farms. Consider adding Farmers of the Front Range to your wall. There are numerous places to purchase this gem listed here. You can also purchase it directly from the website. If you purchase directly from one of the farmers they receive a 40% commission directly. At just $14.95, this is a great gift to purchase for you this season.
