Beau Jo's Pizza started as a single ski hangout and pie spot in Idaho Springs in 1973 and now boasts six Colorado locations. This homegrown pizza chain is environmentally friendly, utilizing wind and solar power, green building practices, xeriscaping and biodegradable to-go boxes at every location. Beau Jo's also caters to vegetarian, vegan and gluten-free palates, with dairy-free cheese, gluten-free pizza crusts and plenty of veggie pizza toppers, including Hatch green chiles. Between the pies and the social consciousness, the local chain feeds bellies and reduces carbon footprints at the same time.
