This week was another eventful and memorable week in Palisade.
The Farmers Market on Sunday’s in the heart of town is the place to be. There were multiple food trucks selling pretty money looking cuisine. The fruit and vegetable vendors were plentiful providing an assortment juicy plums, peaches, cherries and vegetables.
One of our favorite stops was Pear Blossom Farms which, among other items, sold its signature “Dad’s Hot Jalapeno Sauces” and we purchased every flavor!
We also hit up the Jerky stand Dunn-Rite Gourmet Beef Jerky – I just wish I bought a bigger bag.
FYI: Both places ship anywhere in the US…just sayin’
Taco Tuesday!!!
As if the Brewery wasn’t awesome enough, they have $1.50 Taco’s on Tuesday nights (each week a different protein) along with live music. Locals and tourists showed up; it was a nice time.
We pass by this cool little place every time we drive to town and we’d had enough – we needed to try it. So Mead – as this place does it – is basically wine made of orange blossom honey. They give you five free tastings per person so we were able to sample quite a few.
Most of the flavors claimed on the menu below are on the money; we decided to go with the peach flavor with our customary after tasting purchase.
Palisade Rim Trail – sort of…
So we’ve heard about the awesome, pet friendly trail right here in Palisade and after work on Friday we finally got our shit together and went to explore.
The thing about trail heads is that they’re not always easy to find – until you actually find them, then it’s like how the hell did we miss it. Anyway, instead of actually hiking the Rim Trail, we ended up on another awesome hike in the same area, and we will be back. Check out the scenery!
