Description |
A natural choice for Utah's flag, the honeybee or "Deseret" as it was called by the early pioneers, is a symbol of cooperative work and dedication to community. The three stripes of the flag represent Utah's location at the convergence of three distinct geological regions: the Rocky Mountains, the Great Basin, and the Colorado Plateau. Green symbolizes our agriculture Sienna symbolizes our connection with the land Yellow symbolizes our optimism and positivity |
