Brighton truck stop advances

Loves project, started in 2015, gets map approval

BY SCOTT TAYLOR STAYLOR@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

Brighton is one step closer to the nine-year goal of developing a truck stop along Highway 85.

Councilors voted unanimously to approve the nal plat for the Loves Travel Stop development and surrounding residential uses on Brighton’s northwestern edge. e nearly 53-acre parcel is located at the southwest corner of State Highway 85 and Baseline Road/ 168th Avenue — just east of the South Platte River and west of Highway 85.

For Councilor Tom Green, a series of road improvements planned as part of the project are some of the biggest selling points.

Requirements dramatically pared back in governor’s “land-use” bill

BY JESSE PAUL AND ELLIOTT WENZLER

THE COLORADO SUN

Gov. Jared Polis and Democrats in the Colorado legislature signicantly pared back their major landuse bill amid big questions about whether their signature a ordable housing initiative at the Capitol this year can get enough support to pass.

Colorado’s largest cities would no longer be required to let multifamily housing with up to six units be built in all residentially zoned areas under a major amendment made to Senate Bill 213. Instead, those cities — like Denver, Aurora, Boulder, Englewood, Colorado Springs, Fort Collins, Lakewood, Pueblo, orn-

ton and Westminster — would only have to let duplexes, triplexes and fourplexes be built in 30% of their land area currently zoned for singlefamily homes, concentrated around train and high-frequency bus corridors where applicable.

e change, which came in midApril, shifts the legislation away from attempting to broadly increase housing density to a more limited approach linked to transit. Without the changes, it appeared the bill, which has received major opposition from cities and towns across the state, would lack enough support to clear its rst committee.

In all, there were 17 amendments made to the bill, totaling dozens of pages. One of the major changes

reduces land-use requirements on resort communities, like Aspen and Vail.

e Senate Local Government and Housing Committee approved the overhauled measure on a 4-3 vote, with all of the Democrats on the panel voting “yes” and all of the Republicans voting “no.” It was unclear whether the measure would have enough votes to advance and the committee hearing was delayed for hours while amendments were nalized and negotiated.

Senate Majority Leader Dominick Moreno, a Commerce City Democrat and prime sponsor of the bill, warned that more changes were

“I’m just really impressed with the great agreements sta has come up with on this,” Green said. “ e roadway improvements, these are just incredible. You put pencil to paper and really got things done and I’m really impressed with what you have here.”

Loves is a national truck stop chain with more than 600 locations in 42 states, including 12 in Colorado.

Developer Steve Walters said he expects work on the project to take up to nine months once work gets underway, with work kicking o next spring.

Councilor Clint Blackhurst applauded both sta and the developer for sticking with the project.

“ is looks like a pretty straightforward, easy process,” Blackhurst said. “But I can tell you, it was anything but. It took a lot of work.”

He said he’ll be happy to see improvement going into the site.

“Most of us remember when you used to see that property with piles of white material, lime deposits. And that’s just the way it was. It looked like it belonged on the moon,” Blackhurst said. “It didn’t look like it

needed. “By no means does the work stop here,” he said.

Heading into a committee hearing, Sen. Dylan Roberts, an Avon Democrat, appeared to be the swing vote on the committee. He cast a reluctant “yes” vote. “I still have concerns with where the bill is,” he said, adding that there will be “a lot more to do” to get him to back the bill once it is debated on the Senate oor.

But two other Democrats on the committee — Sens. Julie Gonzales of Denver and Tony Exum of Colorado Springs — also expressed anxiety about the measure before voting to advance the legislation. e pair said more changes were needed.

“You will see more amendments coming,” Gonzales said.

An e ort by Sen. Barbara Kirkmeyer, a Brighton Republican on the committee to erase the measure and replace it with an alternative policy with no policy preemptions for local governments was rejected. “Senate bill 213, as it stands right now, … is never going to get us to a ordable housing,” she said. “All it’s going to do is preempt local governments.”

e bill now heads to the Senate Appropriations Committee for approval before it can advance to the full Senate.

Under amendments, cities and towns would have to allow duplexes, triplexes and fourplexes to be built in a half-mile radius around rail stations and a quarter-mile around corridors with bus-rapid-transit or where a bus stops every 15 minutes.

If a municipality doesn’t want to allow building of two, three or four units next to certain transit stops they could opt to zone for that kind of housing in a di erent part of their city or town proportional to the area around a transit stop that would have been a ected. In doing so, however, the municipality would have to take steps to prevent people living in those areas from being displaced and would be encouraged to focus the zoning around walkable areas.

At a minimum, Colorado’s largest cities would have to allow duplexes, triplexes and fourplexes in 30% of the areas that are currently zoned for single-family homes. e requirement would also apply to large cities that don’t have train stops or bus rapid transit and bus routes with 15-minute frequencies, though they would be encouraged to prioritize their placement of denser residential zoned areas near transit.

Additionally, the amendments remove a provision preventing cities from mandating that new duplexes, triplexes and fourplexes around train stations and along bus routes with a lot of frequency be accompanied by parking. Instead, the change allows municipalities to require that a half a parking spot be built alongside each new housing unit.

e cities that would be subject to the requirements include: Arvada, Aurora, Boulder, Brighton, Broomeld, Castle Pines, Castle Rock, Centennial, Cherry Hills Village, Columbine Valley, Commerce City, Denver, Edgewater, Englewood, Erie, Federal Heights, Glendale, Golden, Greenwood Village, Lafayette, Lakewood, Littleton, Lochbuie, Lone Tree, Longmont, Louisville, Northglenn,

Outside of the Denver metro area, Greeley, Fort Collins, Loveland, Windsor, Colorado Springs, Fountain, Grand Junction and Pueblo would also fall under the mandates.

e amendments would also require that cities with bus rapid transit zone for an average housing density of 25 units an acre in at least 25% of the housing-eligible land without a half-mile of stops. e requirement would be the same for within a quarter-mile of corridors with frequent bus routes.

Cities with trains would have to zone for an average housing density of 40 units per acre in 50% of the housing-eligible land within a halfmile of stations.

Another amendment signi cantly changes the zoning shifts that would have been required of so-called rural resort job centers, including the Eagle River Valley near Vail and Roaring Fork Valley near Aspen.

Rural resort job centers are dened as municipalities that have a population of at least 1,000 and at least 1,200 jobs and are outside of a metropolitan planning organization, like the Denver Regional Council of Governments or the North Front Range Metropolitan Planning Organization. ey also have regional transit service with at least 20 trips per day. e legislation’s rural resort centers include: Avon, Breckenridge, Crested Butte, Dillon, Durango, Frisco, Glenwood Springs, Mountain Village, Silverthorne, Snowmass Village, Steamboat Springs, Telluride and Winter Park.

As originally written, the measure would have required adjacent towns in rural resort communities to work together to determine where to increase housing density and to identify bus corridors and work to increase residential and commercial development surrounding those corridors.

Under the amendments, rural resort communities would be required

to choose at least ve options from a menu of 10 to 15 a ordability strategies included in the bill. Most of the resort communities already employ many of the listed strategies.

One of those options is letting property owners build accessory-dwelling units, also known as ADUs or “granny ats.” Other strategies on the menu include restrictions on short-term rentals, like those listed on Airbnb or Vrbo, deed restrictions, expediting building permit review, and establishing a local revenue source to develop a ordable housing. One strategy would be for municipalities to waive permitting, infrastructure and utility fees for building a ordable housing developments.

“I think they sort of missed the boat in this rst draft and what should apply to us and what would work best for us,” said Eric Mamula, the mayor of Breckenridge and owner of Downstairs at Eric’s restaurant.

Mamula said his community’s top concerns with the introduced version of the legislation involved a lack of a ordability restrictions on new construction and no requirements that buyers and residents of new housing be part of the local workforce. ey also worried about the absence of permanence for a ordability and other regulations involving the newly mandated housing.

Last month Mamula said resort communities would be working with lawmakers and the governor to “make sure we are getting the point across that we need some protections for our smaller ski town communities.”

“I feel like we are being heard,” he said.

e original version of the bill would have required rural resort centers to allow ADUs. Under the amended version, only municipalities in the rest of the state would be prevented from restricting them. Right now, ADUs may be built in many towns and cities only in certain

e city still needs to approve a site plan for the development and issue nal permits, Tylka said.

“A nal plat and development agreement comes before the city council,” he said. “ ese are all required for site development can begin the property.”

e project calls for ten developed lots with a new road, Riverfront Drive,

running down the middle.

“A track for emergency access would go to the south, as the future plan calls for Riverfront Drive to continue south and connect into Kuner Road,” Tylka said.

Commercial developments would be clustered on the property’s northern edge along 168th Avenue with seven residential lots to the south on either side of the new road.

A cluster of trails and open space would go along the property’s westside, along the South Platte River.

Tylka said that at least 10.2 acres of the lot would be dedicated to open space.

Tylka said plans call for connecting that to the Colorado Front Range Trail, the planned 876 mile-long-path from New Mexico to Wyoming.

“And then we have easements for a future trail to connect to an underpass under U.S. 85 that would connect to that future Front Range Trail corridor,” Tylka said. “ is would be a connection from that regional trail all the way

Road improvements

Tra c at the 168th Avenue and Highway 85 intersection was one of the council’s biggest concerns with the project in 2015, and Tylka said the newest version is designed to tackle those with improvements to all four corners of the intersection, including widening and new lanes for turning and merging tra c.

“You will see de-acceleration lanes into the Metro North Treatment Facility is maintained and another is proposed coming into the new Riverfront Drive from the east and a much longer one going on to U.S. 85 for those traveling eastbound on Baseline. Right now, you see that gets backed up a bit currently.”

Tylka said the plan also includes new turning lanes around the intersection. All of that work would need to complete before the site could be developed, he said.

Another change to the bill would allow municipalities to notify the state of their need for an extension or exemption from the requirements based on shortfalls in their water supply or infrastructure.

Unchanged in the bill are a preemption on occupancy restrictions based on whether people living in a home are family members, as well as e orts to streamline manufactured housing. Still pending in the legislature is a measure that would ban municipalities from imposing growth caps while also repealing caps that have already been adopted in cities like Golden and Boulder.

Michael George Nudd Sr, passed away on April 17, 2023, at his home in Brighton, Colorado. He was born February 4, 1949, to Gerald and Ann (Carnahan) Nudd, in Peoria, Illinois, where he also grew up until his family moved to Colorado in the Summer 1955. Mike attended Alameda High School and completed a year of college at Northeastern Jr. College in Sterling, CO. After college, Mike went on to work at and eventually own Denver Signs System Inc. A company his father started in the 60’s, which was eventually handed down to him 80’s. He worked there until his retirement in 2012. After retirement, with his “never sitting still” attitude, Mike went on to volunteer at Platte Valley Medical Center, as a front desk attendant, a job he enjoyed doing tremendously.

Before his career took ourishment, Mike married the love of his life, Linda Sue Swanberg on February 21, 1970, in Denver, CO. Mike, and his wife stayed put in the Denver Metro area to raise a family of six for

the rest of their days.

On his o time, Mike loved to be in the outdoors. Whether he was gol ng, shing, camping, or hosting one of his memorable and rowdy fourth of July parties that had the possibility to turn into a 3–4-day event, he truly loved being outside. Mike had a lot of friends and pets. He particularly loves his cat Jett and even befriended a Canadian goose to the point where he was caring and nurturing for him more than his own mother. He was a man of many traits and talents, but ultimately, he was a family man, who would do just about anything to keep his family happy.

Mike is survived by four children: Jennifer (Ralph) Bolyard, (Brighton, CO), Patrick (Rachel) Nudd, (Oak Grove, MN), Dan (Sara) Nudd, (Aurora, CO), and Mick (Kelly) Nudd, (Parker, CO). Along by one sister, Nancy (Skip) Brayer, (Brighton, CO), and numerous grandchildren; Zack, Jessey, Emma, Mackenzie, Lyndsie, Zach, Peyton, Cooper, Cy, Elsie, Zach, Alli, Drew, Lucy and Caitlynn.

Michael George Nudd Sr. February 4, 1949 - April 17, 2023

We all know what BYOB means right? It’s a restaurant that doesn’t serve alcohol, so the BYOB means bring your own booze. We love those establishments that have a full bar, great wines, and specialty cocktails. And when the food is as good or better than the booze, all the better.

But we also love those restaurants that require us to bring our own booze. Maybe it’s because they couldn’t get a liquor license, or maybe they prefer to focus on their passion for the food they cook, and either way, they are still a BYOB.

What if we thought about this in other areas of life? Even if we aren’t a restauranteur, or even if we are, we face other situations and opportunities in life that require us to bring something else to the game in order to achieve success. What if we thought about changing BYOB to BYOK, bring your own kindness? Or BYOS, bring your own strength. Perhaps it’s BYOP, bring your own peace. As you read this you could probably fill in the blank with, bring your own compassion, grace, awe-

Bring your own ...

someness, courage, hope, or any other positive, encouraging, and affirming

So, let’s tackle a few, shall we?

BYOK, bring your own kindness. As I did some research for this column, asking people what they wished the world would bring if they had to bring their own anything, kindness was the number one word. Those I spoke with and others who responded to a survey shared that the ugliness and negativity of the world had them wishing that the world could be a little kinder, well actually, a lot kinder. One respondent was so convicted of this that she felt that, “If we could all just show up with kindness every day, we could actually have a greater impact on the world than climate change efforts, economic shifts, and voting in the right candidate for president.”

BYOS, bring your own strength. Sometimes life deals us a bad or difficult hand. Sometimes we find ourselves in a season of life where

we succumb to our weaknesses, or we see the situation as too much for us to handle; Illness, divorce, addiction, or death in our circle of family and friends, and so many other horrible life events that can cause us to cave. BYOS means that we find our inner strength, and if we don’t have that strength or can’t find that strength, we need to BYOS, bring the strength of others who come alongside us, just when we need them the most.

BYOP, bring your own peace. Wow, could this be the most prolific of all BYO’s? In the agitated world that finds us reading news about road rage, random violence, wars, school or community shootings, or any other topic that drives a wedge between humanity, peace is the most desired of human emotions right now. We live in a world of violence on TV, in the movies, in video games, and it’s all tolerated or worse, accepted as the norm of the world in which we live. BYOP, bring your own peace, this means we can own how we react or respond to each and every news feed or situation we find ourselves in with peace.

You get the point, right? BYO isn’t restricted to restauranteurs,

BYO means we can bring our own anything to each and every situation we face. We all face seasons of life that bring us heartache and anguish, seasons of joy and celebration, and well, just seasons of life. No matter what we face, we, and only we, can determine what we bring to the game or situation. Will it be kindness, strength, peace, hope, grace, love, awesomeness, courage, or hope?

The choice is yours; the choice is ours. It doesn’t matter what other BYO might be, we get to select our own BYO. What’s yours? If your BYO is kindness, please live it. If it’s strength, please own it. And if it’s peace, please keep it. And if it is any other quality or trait that can have a positive impact on our world, please share it. I would love to hear your story at gotonorton@gmail.com and when we can decide which BYO to live, it really will be a better than good life.

How failed banks impact investors

It can be very unsettling to hear of a bank failure such as Silicon Valley Bank (SVB) last month. Investors may wonder how they should react or if they should adjust their portfolios.

First, a little history lesson to put this into perspective.

When depositors rush to get their money out of a bank that is nancially in trouble, it is called a “run” on the bank. ese are not new and have occurred at di erent levels of severity in the past, the worst in the 1930s during the Great Depression. At that time, there was contagion across many banks, not our current situation. While bank insolvency can often come on the heels of the Federal Reserve Board raising interest rates, that is not solely the cause, according to Mariner Wealth Advisors Chief Economist William Greiner.

Each bank must manage the risk of lending, investing, cash deposits and withdrawals. If any or all of those are out of balance, problems start to percolate. When you have high-risk loans, such as technology

Many banks issue loans on real estate or other business collateral. ey may also use Treasuries to back up deposits. When the Fed raises interest rates, and the value of those Treasury bonds declines, bankers may need to sell at a loss to cover withdrawals. Once this spiral starts, or collateral is devalued due to bad loans, depositors may demand their money causing a run on the bank.

pressure on bond values and concerns the bank would need to raise capital, caused some technologyfocused venture capital companies to remove funds from SVB.

It was very fortunate that a contagion was avoided, as the U.S. government response was swift and e ective. Once the facts were released and average depositors realized they were not involved in a bank that does high-risk lending, some of the pressures eased.

Investors will likely review their portfolio to make sure they are not invested in small banks in the venture capital space or have heavy exposure to commercial real estate.

ey may also avoid banks that have not had proper risk management or oversight. ese things created a perfect storm scenario for SVB. It may be wise to stay with large institutions commonly known as “too big to fail” due to their backing by the Fed. Large banks may actually bene t from depositors moving money to them from small banks in amounts not covered by the $250,000 limit for FDIC

Warriors’ all-time leading scorer ready for the next level

Brighton basketball player Hill hopes to stay close to home

BY JOHN RENFROW JRENFROW@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

Hunter Hill has no shortage of individual accolades. But the Eagle Ridge Academy senior basketball player is still a team- rst kind of guy. So much so, that he had no idea he was approaching the Warriors’ alltime leading scorer pedestal. One of his teammates had to tell him.

“I never really paid attention to how many points (I had) or who was the leading scorer,” Hill said. “But I remember my teammate, Peyton Torres, told me. And I thought, ‘Well I guess that’s pretty cool.’”

After Hill joined the Brighton school’s 1,000-point club, it started to sink in. He knew he had accomplished something truly special.

at’s because there’s no shortage of great scorers who have come out of Eagle Ridge Academy.

On top of scoring more points than any Warrior before (his tally hit 1,118), Hill was a rst team all-state selection this past season.

Hill was also a rst team allconference selection for three years straight. When asked to explain who he is as a basketball player, Hill called himself an opportunist.

“I like to get downhill,” Hill said. “I like to cut and make opportunities for myself without the ball. I try to make the right play.”

As a slasher and explosive force, it’s no surprise Hill’s favorite player is Russell Westbrook of the Los Angeles Clippers. He tries to emulate Westbrook’s energy whenever he’s on the court, and use it as a catalyst for whatever his team needs from him on that night. (He’s got the Nuggets winning the Finals, though, of course.)

In his nal season, the 6-foot-6 senior averaged 17.7 points per game, as well as 5.3 rebounds, 2 assists, and 2 steals, helping Eagle Ridge to a 21-6 season record and Final Four appearance before the team eventually lost to Holy Family (Broom eld) in the semi nal.  ough it’s all eyes to the future, Hill re ects on some favorite memories in his Warriors uniform.

“ is year, when we got to cut down the net going into the state tournament, that was a good memory,” Hill said. “We played a pretty good Riverdale team, who we lost

to in a charity game. So, it was good that we bounced back and got the (win) when it mattered. And last summer when we went to the University of Colorado’s team camp. We just had a great time and ended up winning that tournament.”

Eagle Ridge provided Hill with an opportunity to do what he was best at, he said. In his case, that meant creating opportunities and situations where Hill could get to the rim. He said no matter your year, if you can play and do the right things, you’ll get minutes.

Although he’s sad to leave his teammates, the future is calling (literally). Hill is anxious to answer the bell. He’s had discussions with several colleges, including Kentucky Christian University, Centre College, Cornell College, and several others. But one factor is weighing heavy on his mind.

“Being closer to home is a big thing for me, and that’s going to be one of the main things that goes into my decision,” Hill said.

He’s con dent his basketball skills and natural talent could carry him far on the court, but Hill wants to stay around sports one way or the other. He plans to study athletic training, exercise science, kinesiology, and other sports-adjacent stud-

ies in college.

Horizon can’t stop Thunderhawks

Praire View continues to dominate Front Range League

BY JONATHAN MANESS SPECIAL TO COLORADO COMMUNITY MEDIA

THORNTON - e Horizon and Prairie View high school baseball teams are o to a strong start to the 2023 baseball season.

e two squads faced o on the diamond ursday with the underhawks coming out on top 12-6 to pick up their third consecutive win and fourth victory in the Front Range League.

It’s a challenging road ahead for both the teams playing in the revamped Front Range League. It will be Prairie View’s rst year in the league after playing in the East Metro Conference. Horizon was fth in the FRL last season.

e Front Range League features some of the top teams in Class 5A, including the defending Class 5A state champion Broom eld and also Legacy - the runner up last year. e top-ranked Rocky Mountain Lobos are also another headliner from the league.

“It’s a tough league, we have our work cut out for us,” said Prairie View coach Mark Gonzalez. “ ere are a lot of good teams and quality programs.”

e underhawks rolled through their non-league schedule, winning ve

of six games and their lone loss coming in a tight 4-3 defeat against North Penn (Pa.).

e two losses in conference for the Prairie View were to Loveland (6-4 loss) and Rocky Mountain (9-7). Against Rocky, the Lobos scored three runs in the sixth to steal the victory.

e strong showing has Prairie View right on the verge of being ranked in Class 5A.

“We are right there; have a really good group that really like to compete,” Gonzalez said. “We play our game we have a chance down the stretch.”

Junior Wyatt Waterhouse is leading the way with 15 hits, 18 runs and is batting .417 at the plate.

Senior Trevor Devincenzi and sopho-

more Jerry Stone have also done well at the plate, each connecting on 12 hits. Against Horizon, Prairie View took advantage of the Hawks mistakes down the stretch to get the wins Getting four runs across in the both the sixth and seventh innings.

Six di erent players had hits for Prairie View and Favi Gaeta and Travis Teague led the way with two RBIs each and Anthony Rivera scored three runs.

Local foragers teach students to cook with wild foods

ere some see weeds, Erica Davis sees ingredients for delicious soups and salads.

“In urban areas, there are a lot of plants that we call weeds that spring up everywhere, that are widely available to people, that are edible and good,” she said.

Foraging is the act of gathering wild plants from nature, generally to be used for food, and sometimes to make other products. For Davis and other foragers, spring means plants are starting to grow –which means kitchens will soon be full of wild foods ready to be prepared in creative

Across the Front Range and in the mountains, several foragers share their knowledge through cooking classes based on

Why cook with wild food?

Davis, who runs a blog called Wild Food Girl, has upcoming classes in Ramah and Fairplay. Her Arvada class this spring has

“I think one of the biggest challenges with edible wild plants is that people don’t always know how to prepare them,” she said. “We all know how to cook spinach, we all know how to make broccoli — but we don’t all know how to cook tumble mustard so that it tastes good. So in my classes, I like to give students that experience of preparing an edible wild plant — or three — in a way that I think they are going to Davis’ classes begin with an hourlong plant walk where students learn the names of plants and safety and sustainability guidelines for foraging. Afterward, she teaches them how to prepare several of the plants they have for-

In the spring, dandelions and wild mustard greens are common staples in her

“People sometimes picture foraging as going out into the forest and picking plants

— and that’s part of it — but I would really encourage people to learn the weeds and make use of them,” she said. “A lot of them are non-native species, so there really aren’t as many ecological considerations with picking them.”

Davis teaches her students to make dandelion green soup from a recipe passed down by an Italian relative. Musk mustard is great in salads, and tumble mustard and field pennycress are fun to ferment, she said.

Beyond the creative and flavorful uses of foraged foods, research from 2019 suggests that wild edible greens harvested in urban areas can be abundant and highly nutritious. The study dubbed wild edible plants “open-source food.”

“This idea that open-source food is out there for anybody to eat and make use of — and then furthermore, it’s organic, it’s free, it’s fresh — I just think that’s a great concept,” Davis said.

Safety precautions

Despite their affordability and freshness, wild plants are not all safe to eat. Crystal Baldwin, who teaches wild plant-based classes at her Golden business, Earth Sweet Boutique, said it’s always important to triple-check plants before you eat them.

“I don’t like to frighten people away from… foraged foods because there’s a lot of very safe ones,” Baldwin said. “But I like them to be aware that there are dangerous, poisonous ones that will kill you, and so it’s important to kind of have an idea of what those might be and what to look out for.”

Baldwin encourages those interested in foraging to start by taking classes, working with local experts and reading about which plants are safe to eat.

She also said it’s important to check if plants are near old buildings that could be contributing lead to soil or if plants have been sprayed with pesticides.

WEEDS

‘Part of human history’

In addition to cooking, Baldwin said wild foods can be used to make skincare products, tinctures, infused honey, medicines and more.

“There’s many different things you can do with foraged foods, and the great thing about it is that we have tons of free, wonderful, wild foods here in Colorado,” she said.

Some of Baldwin’s favorite plants to forage are pine and conifer needles, which are high in vitamin C. She uses the needles to make a simple syrup that she drinks with seltzer water and fresh lemon.

“It’s extremely refreshing and has a lot of minerals, so it’s very hydrating in the summertime when it’s hot,” she said.

When foraging, it’s important to do so in a way that does not damage plants or plant populations, Baldwin said. When gathering pine needles, for example, she takes about an inch or two from each branch and moves around to different branches so as to not damage the plant.

Davis agreed that sustainability is an important part of foraging process, and it’s something foragers need to be mindful of in order to do correctly.

“Sometimes people think ‘Foraging must be bad for the environment because you’re picking the plants!’ But I think the actual truth is much more nuanced than that,” she said. “Foraging is part of human history, I mean, we have been foraging since time immemorial, and we can do it in ways that don’t harm the plant populations if we’re mindful.”

Beyond freshness and accessibility, Davis said foraging offers health benefits and a range of flavors that are not available in grocery stores.

And perhaps best of all, wild food offers a way to get close to nature.

“For me, also, they offer a connection to nature,” Davis said. “They invite time spent outdoors, getting to know plants, working with my hands.”

Davis has available spots in her classes in Ramah and Fairplay this spring and summer. Her classes can be found at https://wildfoodgirl.com/ wfg-events/.

On her webpage, people who want to learn more about foraging can also sign up for the Colorado foragers email list.

In May, Baldwin is hosting a wild food cooking class at her shop, taught by veteran forager Wendy Petty. Interested students can sign up at https:// earthsweetboutique.com/products/wild-foraged-food-cooking-class and see future classes at https://earthsweetboutique. com/pages/classes-events.

1) That the child have been abandoned by their parent or parents in that the parent or parents have surrendered physical custody for a period of six months and during this period have not manifested to the child, the court or to the person having physical custody a firm intention to assume or obtain physical custody or to make permanent legal arrangements for the care of the child and 2) That it is in the best interests of the child that the parent-child legal relationship which exists between the child and the respondents be terminated and severed.

The Court, before it can terminate the parent-child legal relationship, must find that a continuation of the relationship is likely to result in grave risk of death or serious injury to the child or that your conduct or condition as a parent renders you unable or unwilling to give the child reasonable parental care.

YOU ARE FURTHER ADVISED that you have the right to have legal counsel represent you in all matters connected with the Motion to Terminate the Parent-Child Legal Relationship. If you cannot afford to pay the fees of legal counsel, you are advised that the Court will appoint legal counsel to represent you at no cost to you upon your request and upon your showing of an inability to pay.
