Our Local Vendors
*While we try to update this list, it is not all inclusive
We support Durango's local vendors! Buying local helps reduce your environmental footprint, keeps money in our regional economy, and helps ensure the uniqueness of our town.
1: Reduce your environmental footprint: Local means less shipping for your daily food requirements. Driving from one end of town to the other is significantly greener than a truck coming from a major food producing state like California. Also, local means more accountability. Instead of a distant megafarm, local means that you know exactly where your food originates from and question their growing practices.
2: Keeps money local: according to Local First, "For every $100 spent at a locally owned business, nearly half goes back into the community and our tax base. For every $100 spent at a chain store, less than 15% is recirculated". Buying local supports a company owned and staffed by your neighbors. A vibrant economy is only possible with locally based companies such as our vendors.
3: Uniqueness of Durango: Unique food is essential to keep our town different. Many of our vendors only sell to local stores like ours. Without these vendors, Durango would only have strip mall, anywhere in America style grocery options.

Ska Brewing
“IT TAKES CHARACTERS TO BREW BEER WITH CHARACTER”
Somewhere out in Colorado, in the year nineteen hundred and ninety-five, two guys named Dave and Bill learned that while they loved gulping down good beer, they weren’t yet old enough to buy it. They figured an answer to their quandary would appear if they drank enough and listened to enough thinking music, also known as Ska. On the second Skaturday of Skatember it hit them. If they brewed their own beer they’d have all the beer they could ever want. And while they were at it, why not brew the most magnificent suds ever quaffed in their neck of the woods…or any other neck for that matter.
Cream Bean Berry
Founding Principles:
1) Use the highest quality ingredients to make the freshest, most flavorful ice cream possible. ‘Nuff said.
2) Strive for maximum environmental sustainability in every aspect of our business. This means using as many locally produced and organic ingredients as we can, as well as reducing waste through recycling and composting. The majority of our packaging is biodegradable. We also reduce our environmental impact with green cleaning products, water conversation and energy star-rated appliances.
3) Contribute to the community. Everywhere you turn in Durango, someone is doing something amazing. Each year, we make thousands of dollars worth of in-kind contributions to local non-profits and schools.
4) Promote human dignity. Making and selling ice cream from scratch takes a lot of effort. Without the dedicated work of the CBB team, this endeavor would fail. We show our appreciation by paying our workers a living wage. They in turn show our customers our appreciation by making their experience at CBB as enjoyable and memorable as possible.

We also hand-water and use drip irrigation to save water. Minimal machinery is used and all harvesting is done by hand.
2022 will be our 12th growing season and we will be specializing in over 40 different crops to market!

Brightwood Farm
Small-scale, sustainable agriculture in the Animas Valley
After farming in Virginia for 18 years, Dean and Susan decided in late 2018 to make the big move to a 5 acre farm in Hermosa, Colorado, 8 miles North of Durango. Throughout 2019 we worked towards establishing our farm and making it our own. We are farming not just organically, but also biologically here, as we did in Virginia.
It would have been much easier to make the 2,000 mile move without our two tractors, disassembled greenhouse, cow, 2 sheep, livestock guardian dog, barn cat and all of the many pieces of equipment that you need to be able to farm efficiently. However, over the years we have become committed to sustainable farming where most of our inputs come from our farm, where our soil gains organic matter year on year, where we produce truly nutrient dense food because we farm in harmony with nature. We are committed to continue farming this way and to spread the word about how wonderful well grown food can taste. It is better for people and the process is better for the planet.

Zuberfizz
Durango Soda Company, Inc. was founded in January of 2002. Partners Banden Zuber (hence Zuberfizz!!) and Dan Aggeler started home-brewing as roommates at Colorado State University and eventually became commercial Brewmasters. The idea was to manufacture traditional sodas that existed decades ago by using the best ingredients and packaging available, similar to what the micro-brew industry was demonstrating.
The most important ingredient used in our sodas is pure cane sugar. Large companies have abandoned pure cane sugar to cut costs by using high-fructose corn syrup. It has been shown that this new widely-used ingredient is difficult to metabolize and is the leading cause of obesity and diabetes among Americans. Pure cane sugar also tastes much better. Every ingredient used in our sodas is of the highest quality.
Packaging and the environment are also of importance to Durango Soda Company. We use glass bottles for all of our products. The old "heritage" twist-top bottle contributes to the look and feel of traditional sodas. Glass containers not only help preserve flavor, but are easier on the environment. The detergents and sanitizers we use are also worker & environmentally friendly. Afterall, the 2 owners still make every batch of soda produced!
Starting with mom and pop restaurants in Durango, Zuberfizz is now available around the USA
Beck & Bulow

City Farm Colorado
City Farm strives to offer the absolute best in wholesome egg products, as well as naturally raised Aberdeen Angus beef. This all happens on our Spring Creek farm in the beautiful Uncompaghre Valley of Western Colorado.
Before we had a farm, we would go to our local grocery markets and buy produce and fresh eggs just like everyone else. We would sit at home and talk about where these expensive products were coming from. What was in these products? Were they treated with chemicals to eradicate pests or preserve their shelf life? And what about this $1 bell pepper? Why does it cost a dollar? We knew we could do better than that. And so we created City Farm.
Our passion is growing organic products that are guaranteed to be local, organic, fresh and free from any chemicals or toxins that may cause harm. We love to help keep Colorado healthy and happy.

Outlier Farms
Outlier Farm is a place where the practical realism of vegetable farming meets the hopeful prospects of apple orchards. Formed in 2019 through the partnership of Max Kirks from High Pine Produce and Sam Perry of Fenceline Cider, Outlier believes in blending these two production models in a way that one supports the other, creating a beautiful and resilient farmscape where biodiversity and productivity are at the forefront. While we patiently wait for our young apple trees to bear fruit, we are keeping busy by producing high quality, beyond organically-grown vegetable varieties utilizing low-tech hand tools and market gardening practices. It’s our aim to preserve soil structure and eliminate weeds through keeping the soil covered as much as possible, all while producing an abundance on a small acreage of land. However, once the apples start falling from the sky, we look forward to supplying our community with holistically-managed, heritage cider and eating apples grown right here in Southwest Colorado.

We are madly in love with bees, bumbles, solitary bees, hummingbirds, bats, beetles, butterfly moths and even our spicy hornet friends. These masters of pollination are such a big part of the beauty, health and nourishment in our daily lives. There is not a day that goes by that a pollinator has not given us a gift.

Laz Ewe 2 Bar Farm & Dairy
Laz Ewe 2 Bar Dairy is nestled in the rolling hills of western San Luis Valley between Del Norte and South Fork, along the banks of the Rio Grande River. The ranch was homesteaded by the Knoblauch family in the 1880's. Orginally, the Knoblauch Ranch raised dairy cattle. The ranch has gone full circle with the organization of Laz Ewe 2 Bar Goat Dairy, LLC in 1996. The Knoblauch Ranch was recognized as a Centennial Ranch in 2016. The orginal cattle brand that went with homestead was Lazy U 2 Bar. When Amy and Christine started in 4-H, they started showing sheep and eventually began showing dairy goats. As a result the girls coined the name Laz Ewe 2 Bar for their registration name. After 29 years of teaching Jenny retired and they decided to make the goats pay their way by pursuing a dairy license and creating a commerical dairy. Now the dairy isn't just known for it's farmstead, hormone and anti-biotic free goat cheese but also for it's cow and yak cheeses that are produced through sustainable land and animal management practices. The land is also under a RIGHT conservation easement. All livestock are pastured during summer months on seasonally flood irrigated fields and during the winter months are sheltered and fed ranch-raised hay. The hay fields consist of alfalfa, clover, wildflowers and native grasses that are produced without the use of synthetic herbicides, pesticides or insecticides. Not only does the dairy produce cheese but the dairy is also involved with the state's raw milk share program. These programs offer individuals the opportunity to buy into the herd and as a result they receive weekly raw milk as dictated by Colorado State laws.
