Recently, I’ve been enjoying finding and supporting local businesses that I thought it was fitting to write and showcase them on the blog! It’s important to support local businesses because they tend to leave a smaller carbon footprint on the planet plus it’s a very mindful thing to do!
Ciao Cow Creamery
I discovered this local creamery when they did a collaboration with my favorite succulent shop and since then I’ve been hooked! Their gelato is handcrafted, in small batches, from scratches with only fresh ingredient daily. And they incorporate only local California ingredients. I’ve tried their blueberry cheesecake, sweet corn and honey lavender gelato and it is, without a doubt, amazing. They also offer local delivery! (website / instagram)
Quesadilla Gorilla
Chris and I had been meaning to try this quesadilla place since we moved to town last year! We only recently got to try them when they were at a Sunday Farmers Market that had another local business I wanted to try! I’ve only tried their breakfast quesadillas but the chili verde is good, especially when paired with the cilantro salsa – call me obsessed! (website / instagram)
The Nitro Bike
Find the bike! I am obsessed with this little nitro cold brew coffee bike. As of right now, they only do pop-ups where they go to various farmers markets and they taste better than Starbucks. From the name itself, they offer nitro cold brew coffee and tea AND they serve it in eco-friendly cups with a matching eco-friendly straw. They also sell their mugs, which gives you a discount on your purchase when you bring the mug. I’m obsessed with their matcha green latte and their grapefruit tea lemonade! (website / instagram)
