About Us
Welcome to Local Larder, where family, land, and community come together to bring you the best in local, sustainable food. We’re a family rooted in two special places: our home in Aspen, Colorado, and our cherished family-owned ranch in Paonia, Colorado. For us, this isn’t just a business—it’s a way of life, and everyone plays a part. Our children are right there with us, hands in the soil and hearts in the work, growing up with the rhythms of the farm.
At our Paonia ranch, we raise our animals and tend our land with care, using regenerative farming practices that nourish the earth for generations to come. We don't use pesticides or antibiotics—our commitment is to pure, natural food you can trust. We even produce our own hay, ensuring our animals thrive on what we grow ourselves. Beyond our ranch, we partner with other small farms and ranches within 100 miles, sharing their bounty and supporting their livelihoods.
Everything you’ll find in our store is thoughtfully curated, selected based on the types of products we strive to feed our own family—wholesome, high-quality goods that reflect our values. Our vision is to bridge the gap between rural abundance and urban life. We saw a need in the Aspen area—where farm-fresh food isn’t always within convenient reach—and decided to bring the farm stand experience to you. By sourcing locally, we’re not only providing the highest quality food but also reducing the environmental toll of long-distance shipping. It’s about keeping things simple, sustainable, and close to home.
From our family to yours, we’re here to share the fruits of our labor and the beauty of Colorado’s small farms. Thank you for joining us in this journey to eat well, live responsibly, and support the land we all depend on.
Feel free to get in touch with us about any questions you may have.
