Coffee Shop

Old Town Battle Grounds - Winner

“We serve Stumptown coffee and Boar’s Head Deli products (the best of the best). We strive for quality on every order and I could go on about our signature drinks like the Cinful Latte, the Koala Cuddle and the Muddy Turtle, or our famous Reuben and more than you can eat Chief sandwich,” said owner Diane Harris. “However, what really makes us special is our staff; for example, a few weeks ago, I was out of town and they found out one of our very special customers passed away. They moved shifts around so as many as possible could go to the memorial. They took flowers, pastries and coffee; they spoke at the service about how he made their day when he came in. I know this because his family sent a thank you note to the shop staff. I feel blessed everyday to have these individuals in my life and in my shop.

My staff go out of their way to make customers feel welcome, not rushed and at home away from home. They are why I get up everyday. They are each so very special to me.”

Rocky’s Pizza - Winner

Tina Johnsen, a supervisor at Rocky’s Pizza, says the taco pizza is their most popular, followed closely by The MariLue’s (Italian sausage, pepperoni, olives, pineapple and pepperoncini peppers).

A few unique facts about Rocky’s Pizza • Three main supervisors have all been there for 20+ years.

• It’s been open long enough that people who used to come in as kids are now bringing in their kids.

• They opened in 1977 and were located in the Battle Ground Plaza. They were so busy on weekends, they had to turn people away. That led them to purchase the current location in September 1980.

Dessert

Rusty Grape Vineyard Yolicious

Tasty desserts from Fargher Lakehouse.

Rusty Grape Vineyard

Customers enjoy the great flavor of their pizza cooked in a wood fired oven.

Elena Coco attributes their great pizza to her Sicilian father’s secret recipe. He took pride in using the best ingredients to create the best product. Elena, her husband Vinnie, and their son continue with that tradition.

The funniest question she was ever asked was, “Why did you open such a great place in a small place like Ridgefield?” Her response was that she wanted to “introduce her hometown to great pizza—they eat, too!”

Most requested dish: Anything that goes with macaroni and cheese, according to Trish Dye.

Contractor

Brabec Homes, Inc. - Winner

Scott Brabec and his brother Rob feel that people come to them because customers have looked at homes for sale and can’t find what they really want, so they decide to build. Brabec Homes is a design and building firm. People like that idea because they work with one person in the design and building aspect of the home. Scott feels that it is best to start with a budget and then work backwards, that way there are no surprises. Scott indicates that Brab ec Homes, Inc. works with you for your hom e design and building needs. open concepts, covered patios and outdoor living spaces are the popular requests of customers. Probably the biggest request now is a second in-law suite on the main floor of the house. This is a flexible room that can be used by a renter, college student or a caretaker.

Rain Creek Construction, LLC.

A solidly crafted deck from Rain Creek Construction, LLC is one example of what they can do for you.

Lic #RAINCCL99PJ

Sonny Joner, of Rain Creek Construction, suggests that when looking for a good contractor, consider one that takes pride in his workmanship and makes quality their priority. References are also important. Most of all, find someone you like because you are going to spend a lot of time with them!

Main Street Floral Company - Winner

Marilyn Moeser, owner of Main Street Floral Company, relayed one story that really stands out in her mind.

“There was a little old man who shuffled into the store, in tears. He was heartbroken and indicated that his wife was in the hospital dying and he had $50 to spend on a casket piece. I hugged him, consoled him and tried to make him feel comfortable. He left to get back to the hospital and returned the next day and said that he was now ready for the casket piece. We did a beautiful casket piece for him and the entire staff helped him through his emotional journey. Something beautiful came out of a tragic time for this gentleman.”

Jeff Olson, Corporate Sales Manager at Shorty’s, says that considering the record-breaking amounts of rain we have had this season, and our fondness of complaining about it, all is not lost when it comes to gardening! Cool season veggies, such as lettuce, broccoli and cauliflower have been flourishing under our cool, rainy conditions, but now is the time to start planting those summer crops. It looks like we are past our last frost and the rains are starting to subside, so begin planting warm season veggies such as tomatoes, peppers, squash, corn and cucumbers. “One thing I do recommend, whether you are gardening in raised beds or directly in the ground, is to use a good organic vegetable fertilizer. The amount of rain we have had, and the frequent watering we will do, washes vital nutrients from the soil that must be replenished in order for our veggie babies to grow big and strong!” Olson said.
