Who We Are
The owners, Mario & Destiny Gomez, former managers of Alliance Irrigation for 8 years, purchased the business in 2023 and High Desert Irrigation began! We have enjoyed serving the northern part of Colorado with any and all irrigation needs and look forward to continuing doing business with our customers, old and new!
Mario worked for Alliance Irrigation for 11 years before he and Destiny purchased the business and started High Desert Irrigation, in 2023. Prior to working for Alliance, Mario worked and managed a farm of 18,000 acres in Dalhart Texas, for seven years, where he farmed and utilized pivot for irrigation. Mario is also licensed in pump installation.
Destiny was the office manager of Alliance Irrigation for 8 years before purchasing the business with Mario, in 2023. Destiny was raised watching her dad custom irrigate in the panhandle of Texas, and while she worked at a wholesale fuel company for 16 years, she eventually found her way back to the irrigation world when her and Mario made the big move to Colorado in 2015!
