Plan Your Trip to: Palisade, Colorado
For decades, Palisade Colorado has been referred to as the “fruit basket.” The area gave rise to peach, apple, pear and plum orchards. It’s little wonder that eventually grapes were planted and by choosing grape varietals that do well with the high altitude and weather, vineyards and wineries are thriving today. Palisade is a quiet little town with several restaurants. Consider dining at Red Rose Café. Not only will your entrée be delicious but also this restaurant serves only local wines. When visiting a destination site, extend the experience by eating local foods and drinks. Outdoor activities available in and around Palisade include biking, hiking and fishing. Take time, relax and enjoy meeting the friendly residents of Palisade.
