Hello all you lovers of antiques and a grand time, Picking at the Pea is tumbling into town again, Saturday, Oct. 11th. Come see what gems have blown into Pea Green. Check out our numerous vendors, great homemade food and our heart tugging displays. This year we are capturing a time in history when the sky was a cloud of dust, farms became tumbleweed deserts, and whatever people had left, fit on the top of their cars. We take homage to these folks that mended their broken lives and literally moved on to greener pastures. We celebrate the enduring, unbreakable American spirit! And of course, always expect the unexpected!

The Ouray Ice Park is teaming up again with the Uncompahgre Watershed Partnership to maintain and beautify the watershed around the Uncompahgre River Gorge within the Ice Park during our annual event. Volunteers help with the removal of debris, litter, invasive plant species, and other special infrastructure projects. Ice Park tours are given after the clean up, and food, drinks, and giveaways are provided for all volunteers.
