Low Impact Dining: Beyond farm to table, the James Ranch Grill in Durango sources its main regenerative ingredients from the James Ranch itself. Refuel with healthy, locally sourced dishes, from house-made veggie burgers to gourmet salads at Adam’s Mountain Cafe in Manitou Springs. And with a menu starring pasture-raised meats, locally sourced vegetables and “Best Choice Green” seafood, Root Down in Denver is a must-try for diners opting for a more environment-friendly option. Meanwhile, Snooze A.M. Eatery celebrates Earth Day by planting a tree for every employee.
