It all depends on WHERE in Colorado. The Greeley area ( plains ) grows large crops of sugar beets and corn. ( Naming just a few ! ) Some of the mountain towns grow the most wonderful corn, potatoes and lettuce.

I have lived in the foothills, and also at 8,000 feet, and have gardened successfully in both places, almost every vegetable that has a growing season of 120 days or less. Tomatoes are a problem at higher elevations, since they require warm nights to ripen. Corn grows best at lower elevations.

Most vegetables grow well in Colorado. Potatoes, onions, lettuce, spinach, carrots, corn, beans, radish, kale, mustard, collards, etc. Check with your local extension service, or even the local 4H clubs.
