Park City Event Guide: July 19 – July 25

July 18, 2019 by Shelby Hintze, Colony PR

Coming up this week, our state celebrates a uniquely Utah holiday. Pioneer Day celebrates the day when Mormon pioneers entered the Salt Lake valley in 1847 and declared “This is the place!”

And whether you descend from those pioneers or not, and celebrate the holiday as Pioneer Day or Pie & Beer Day, we can all agree that we’re lucky to live here and that this really is the [best] place! With that in mind, here’s a look at what’s happening this weekend. (Featured photo courtesy Bret O Photography, LLC)

We’ve written about Bill White Farms in the past, and now’s your chance to reap the bounty of this Earthganic movement! What does that mean?

With every new day, and every new project, we are constantly learning and transforming agricultural techniques to ensure the well being of our community, and communities around the globe for generations to come.”
