Our goal is to provide Colorado wheat producers an organization that represents them at the state legislature and Congress at the national level while keeping the producer updated on issues affecting Colorado wheat.

“Colorado wheat producers need a strong and united voice now more than ever!”

CAWG is a voluntary membership association that represents its dues paying members at the state legislature and Congress at the national level. It also provides special programs and benefits to members.

Colorado wheat producers need a strong and united voice now more than ever! Your $150 investment in a CAWG membership means money in your pocket. It’s by working through your association that we can and do make a difference. We urge you to join CAWG or renew your membership and continue to make your voice heard. Our continued success depends upon your support!
