Here’s How it Works
Every Monday for eight weeks, you will pop into the taproom between 4 and 7pm to receive an assortment of wares from the participating artisanal vendors. A representative from each business will always be present for you to chat about what they have included, how it was made, where the ingredients came from, etc. This quarter, each pick up will include incredible meats, bread, sweet & savory house-made treats, and of course, beer. In the spirit of collaboration, the vendors meet before each CSA to ponder weekly themes and create meals within many of the weekly boxes.
The participating vendors for this CSA are the following:
Call to Arms Brewing Company
Colorado Craft Butchers
