Agriculture Much of Moffat County in Northwest Colorado is agricultural land. There are many cattle and sheep ranches. In nearby Meeker, Colorado, there is an international competition each year called the Meeker Classic Championship Sheepdog Trials. Competitors come from all over the world to enter their border collies in the trials. There is an art contest held to select the artwork for the poster each year. Our second graders travel to the Sheepdog trials each September. The students have created their own interpretations of the event for our museum.
