How to Launch a Zucchini

Austin Cope
/
KSJD

Saturday brought a wide variety of events to the KSJD listening area, including the Day of Diversity in Cortez and the Mancos Valley Brew fest in Mancos. But KSJD's Austin Cope found the "Three Sisters Ag Fest and Zucchini Launch" in Dove Creek particularly intriguing-- and made the drive up to the festival. He talked to festival organizer and Dove Creek Chamber of Commerce manager Kendra Cook to find out more.

Austin Cope is a former Morning Edition host for KSJD and now produces work on a freelance basis for the station. He grew up in Cortez and hosted a show on KSJD when he was 10 years old. After graduating from Montezuma-Cortez High School in 2010, he lived in Belgium, Ohio, Spain, northern Wyoming, and Himachal Pradesh, India before returning to the Cortez area. He has a degree in Politics from Oberlin College in Ohio.
