History of Longmont, Colorado
In the year 1820, Major Stephen H. Long gazed upon the magnificence of the unbridled Colorado land spread before him. He was particularly struck by the 14,256 foot peak which dominated the view. Later on in 1871, members of the "Chicago Colorado Colony" purchased 50,000 acres along the St. Vrain River, near the old Burlington stage stop, and founded Longmont. The first settlers picked a bluff directly east of Longs Peak for the town site and named the area after the peak.
Lying peacefully under the protective shadow of Longs Peak, Longmont started growing with pioneers that were molded from sound stock and strong morals. Longmont became a hub for farming activities, with crops of sugar beets, alfalfa, beans, potatoes and peas being raised in the valley. The Great Western Sugar Factory manufactured sugar from the sugar beets, and the Empson Cannery processed vegetables.
