The CGC plays a role in fostering a connected community of farmers and ranchers with stakeholders such as sellers, brewers, distillers and bakers, creating a network that enhances the organic grain economy.

Moffitt commended the CGC and other recipients for contributing to the resurgence of interest in local and regional food systems, strengthening markets for producers, and ultimately revitalizing rural communities.

The chef behind Sforno Trattoria Romana on Boulder’s Pearl Street Mall and Caprese Trattoria in Longmont hopes to open an authentic Roman trattoria in Lafayette soon after Valentine’s Day in a space that for many years was home to a popular Chinese restaurant.

The City and Lafayette Urban Renewal Authority (LURA) are partnering to envision what's next for Old Town. We’re looking at how best to preserve and enhance the eclectic and creative character of downtown.

The Boulder County Commissioners have approved a 30-year forgivable loan of $1,055,000 in support of the purchase of the Mountain View Mobile Home Park located in Lafayette to help transition it to a resident-owned community.

Lafayette Florist has SOLD just its property/greenhouses/building (not our flower shop or name) to a very well known and trusted family-owned business that will open a top quality garden center on the same location at 600 South Public Rd. They will announce their name and info soon) They will take excellent care of all your garden shopping needs this coming Spring and beyond!

...they're consolidating their 2 buildings into one by moving into that new space ! Asked about it when we were in there the other day

I was there for dinner early October, and the waitress came to the table and said we were the last customers, and I thought, okay they are closing for the evening and they want us to move along. Got to talking to her and she clarified that we were literally the last customers. They were shutting down. I really liked the food and service but the atmosphere wasn't great for us.

Proposed Kalita Grill Greek Cafe

Since we have a vested interest in development in downtown Lafayette and South Public Road, we always keep an eye on the Lafayette Urban Renewal Authority's (LURA) monthly meeting agenda. We've known about the Kalita Grill Greek Cafe for a while, but when a project actually pops up on an agenda it means it is actively moving forward through the city review process. 

801 S. Public Road, currently vacant, was most recently home to Jack’s Pet Place pet supplies shop. This is actually 3 doors down from our future storefront at 707 South Public, so we're excited to see this come to downtown. Plus, we like Greek food, so we're eager to give it a try when they open their doors.

The LURA board is scheduled to discuss the project in thier November 14th meeting:

Approval of the Site Plan and Architectural Review application for Kalita Grill at 801 S. Public Road with Recommended Conditions

Following up on the announcement following the retirement of the owners of Ting’s restaurant in Lafayette. I had an incredible amount of interest from restauranteurs. I successfully signed a lease with a new tenant who will be opening a classic Italian restaurant called Bucatino.
