Lyons resident Glen Delman, left, and Adrean Kirk, who leads the Lyons Community Farm Project, at the center of the Labyrinth. It’s part of a large revitalization effort that includes a new orchard along the flood plain of the St. Vrain River, which ran over its banks in 2013, inundating a huge swath of the town.

On this Labor Day, labors, of love. Like a budding fruit orchard on property previously ravaged by historic flooding in Lyons. And a barbershop in Denver, where former inmates offer a shave, a haircut, and heart. Plus, Stranahan's celebrates 20 years of tradition where the art of making whiskey is truly a labor of love for the head blender.
