If Alexander Mountain fire continues, evacuated Northern Colorado farmers say their livelihood is in jeopardy

A team of local farmers west of Loveland say the Alexander Mountain Fire could potentially ruin their source of income if it continues to grow to the east. 

Those with the Eden Valley farm say they are under mandatory evacuation, and that has rid of their ability to work on their produce or harvest. 

The farm is located only about a mile or two away from the fire, says Isaac Livingood, a manager of the team’s farmers market outreach. 

The group had just finished harvesting their crop for the week when the fire began. They gathered personal items quickly and loaded their refrigerated truck with the produce they had and headed east.
