About
Colorado Born. Community Raised. Flavor Shared.
Mile High Pork is a proud initiative created to celebrate the people, traditions, and flavors that make Colorado unique. From family farms and local swine shows to restaurants, classrooms, and community events, we showcase how pork brings people together across our state.
Every tradition has a story. It begins with Colorado farmers who are committed to raising healthy animals with care and dedication. That story continues with young exhibitors who develop lifelong skills through youth livestock programs, chefs who transform Colorado-grown pork into unforgettable dishes, and educators who inspire the next generation to understand where their food comes from.
At Mile High Pork, we believe food is more than what’s on your plate—it’s about the people behind it. We’re proud to celebrate Colorado agriculture, support our local communities, and share the rich traditions that make Colorado pork something worth savoring.
Whether you’re enjoying green chile at the State Fair, grilling with family, or discovering a new recipe, you’re experiencing the heart of Colorado—one delicious bite at a time.
Mission
Our mission is to connect Coloradans with the people, passion, and purpose by celebrating local farmers, supporting youth in agriculture, promoting culinary traditions, and educating communities about the value of locally raised food.
Through storytelling, events, partnerships, and educational outreach, Mile High Pork is committed to strengthening the connection between consumers and the dedicated individuals who produce one of Colorado’s favorite proteins. Together, we’re building a stronger appreciation for agriculture while celebrating the flavors, traditions, and communities that make Colorado proud.
