Editor's Letter

Sweet September.

A

s summer days of Slip and Slides and Popsicles are now relegated to weekend activities, we look to one last holiday to close out the summer. For our family, September in Colorado is a memorable time. Last week marked the three-year anniversary of our relocation from Kansas City. Aside from missing our family, the decision to head west was relatively easy. Selling our house and two businesses while being pregnant with our third child was not quite as easy, but where there’s a will, there’s a way.

There are many things to love about Colorado in September. As the warm summer nights give way to crisp fall temperatures, the transition in wardrobes has always been enjoyable for me. This issue was truly a community endeavor. Where else can you round up a vintage airplane and a 1971 BMW in less than a day’s notice for a photo shoot? We are so thankful for everyone who pitched in their time and resources.

Here is a special “thank you” to some of the people that provided some sweet props for September:

LOCAL SMALL BUSINESS HANDCRAFTS FOR LOCAL CHARITIES Lauren and Keith Whittier, founders of TenTables.org, initially launched a large giving campaign back in December 2014, selling a limited edition set of handcrafted farm-style tables made from reclaimed snow fencing from the Western plains. Over the course of the inaugural TenTables campaign they donated $5,000 worth of proceeds from their sales to local and national charities. This summer, a unique set of tables made from 130-year-old Cypress planks from an old horse barn, set atop a handmade steel railroad truss base, is the featured item. This set of 10 tables is only available while supplies last. Ten percent of proceeds from each purchase of an eight-foot dining table, will go directly towards funding outdoor adventures for young adults affected by cancer. The mission of First Descents is to “empower them through conquering legitimate outdoor challenges to push their limits and face their fears.” To learn more about the Old Wood Soul "TenTables" program and their partnership with First Descents, head over to TenTables.org.

THE POST BREWING CO. RELEASES CANS

PHOTOGRAPHY BY MAX SEIGAL

The Post Brewing Company’s award-winning beers will be available at liquor stores, restaurants and bars in Denver, Boulder, and the corridor this summer. Howdy Beer and Townie Ale hit shelves in signature 6-pack boxes in mid-August. The POST celebrated this “can-tastic” event with a series of Can Release Parties: first at Centro Latin Kitchen on Friday, August 21; then at The Post Brewing Company on Saturday, August 22; and finally at LOLA Mexican Fish House on Sunday, August 23. The Can Release Parties featured $1 POST cans in addition to each restaurant's respective happy hour menu. There was live music, swag giveaways, free beer samples, and POST can merchandise for sale. The POST’s award-winning Howdy Beer and Townie Ale were the first in cans with Ol’ Zippy Premium American Ale and Meathooks Session Ale following at a later date that is still to be determined. Howdy Beer is a smooth, drinkable All-American Pilsner that weighs in at 4.5 percent ABV. It recently won the Silver Medal for Best American / International Style Pilsner at the Great American Beer Fest 2014. Townie Ale is brewed to a beautiful 6.2 percent ABV with American Malt and loads of American hops. It took home the Bronze for Best English-style IPA at the 2015 Denver International Beer Competition. If you missed the Can Release Parties, be sure to visit your local liquor store to pick up a 6-pack. PostBrewing.com

RESIDENCES

A mile-long canopy of trees leads to a peaceful and serene setting where an executive home with heated pool, tennis court and separate guest house are perched on the crest of a rolling hillside, presiding over open meadows and ponds, with breathtaking views of the mountains.

Additional well-maintained residences include a manager’s home and the landmark 1890 red brick, two-story farmhouse, where President Dwight D. Eisenhower reportedly dined with close friend and original property owner, Aksel Nielsen.

RECREATION AND WILDLIFE

A prime ecological resource, this scenic property supports a vast assortment of wildlife and is known as a “sportsman’s paradise.” Ponds are ripe for fishing blue gill, crappie and bass. Leisurely outdoor activities include taking in the striking landscape while walking along one the many private hiking trails, as well as hunting for geese, duck and wild turkey. The scenic Boulder Creek corridor, graced by mature trees and enhanced years ago by stabilized stream banks and riparian plantings, flows diagonally across the land, along with eight ponds that provide recreational value and support to the farm’s valuable water rights. Bird watchers delight in the serenity of observing Blue Herons nest at the property’s protected Blue Heron Rookery, as well as Bald Eagles returning again in 2015 to dwell in a grove of mature cottonwood trees.

Boulder Valley Farm is the product of decades of purposeful stewardship and conservation of the land.

Preservation of its ecological and agricultural resources, along with prudent planning, propelled Boulder Valley Farm in the early 1990s to the forefront of the County’s first Non-Urban Planned Unit Development and the exclusive upmarket communities in close proximity to the farm. In preserving the agrarian open space ambiance, the primarily rural farm and rural residential land includes conservation easements and is adjacent to open space land purchased from the farm by the City of Boulder. Boulder Valley Farm has significant senior water rights for irrigation and pond storage, multiple water wells for irrigation and domestic use, and many residences are serviced by the Left Hand Water District.

Boulder Valley Farm – a legacy, a testament to splendid vision and careful stewardship by the generations gone afore…

This exceptional offering reflects a lifestyle property with agricultural and recreational benefits, ecological value, ample wildlife, significant water resources, and the striking beauty of the Colorado Rockies. Boulder Valley Farm is currently listed on the market for $14,000,000.

H

ouseplants are not only aesthetically pleasing, they can be beneficial to your home environment as well. House plants help bring a sense of life into a home, and act as natural air purifiers. The houseplants pictured are: 1. Dracaena 'Hawaiian Sunshine' 2. Aglaonema 'Tigress' 3. Arboricola 'Green Mini' 4. Philodendron Panduraform 5. Rubber Tree Ficus 'Yellow Gem' These houseplants are very versatile, and can survive in both bright and low light conditions. Following these simple instructions ensure that your plant will live a long, fruitful life.

• Use an organic nitrogen based granular fertilizer once every two to three months.

• Do not over water - all house plants need to dry out for at least 24 hours in between waterings.

• When 'upshifting,' do so in small increments to avoid root rot and fungus gnats.

• Using beneficial nematodes in the soil to organically kill any soil dwelling bug can help with fungus gnats and other parasites.

• Buy houseplants that are kept in natural light to ensure the best survival rate for your plant.

uests gathered together from near and far at The Fresh Herb Company in Longmont, where organic flower farm owners Chet and Kristy Anderson hosted a lush Field to Vase dinner over the summer. Attendees relished a communal-style dining experience, sat at farm tables amid rows of flowers and soaked in the gorgeous summer evening as the sun set slowly behind the mountains. The night was just one of a 10-city dinner tour for Certified American Grown farmers.

The Fresh Herb Company, a certified American Grown Flowers Farm, was the perfect setting for the Field to Vase dinner, a newly launched pop-up series that plants a floral twist on the farm-to-fork concept.

"The Field to Vase Dinner Tour puts a face on the flowers, introducing the farmers and highlighting why it is so important that flowers at the center of the table be as fresh, local and sustainable as the food on your plate. That's a powerful experience," says Kasey Cronquist, administrator of the Certified American Grown brand.

The Wall Street Journal recently highlighted the dinner tour as #44 on their list of Top 50 things to do this summer and Food & Wine magazine called these dinners the “ultimate al fresco dinner party.”

The evening is intended to spark conversation of the slow flowers movement, a crusade to give consumers more of a choice to buy locally grown, domestic flowers, similar to how the slow food movement advances toward a greater use of locally grown, sustainable food. Did you know that according to the U.S. Department of Agriculture, 80 percent of flowers sold are imported to the U.S.?

To lead into the discussion, guests experienced a private tour of The Fresh Herb Company and were treated to a beautiful custom floral installation with flowers grown in Boulder, created by guest floral designer Lisa Weddel, AIFD of L. Weddel Design of Highlands Ranch. Attendees then savored local fare, served Ă la family style, at a table decorated with picturesque American Grown flowers. Guest chef Lyle Davis of Pastures of Plenty of Longmont delighted the palates of diners with a menu fit for the evening's emphasis on local agriculture, while Boulder-based pastry chef Miche Bacher of Niche Confections and author of the acclaimed "Cooking with

Flowers," helped craft the evening's dessert by using organic herbs from The Fresh Herb Company’s farm.

The Field to Vase Dinner Tour continues throughout the fall, taking place across the country at flower farms in both urban and rural environments and introducing guests to the art and science of flower farming. It’s a luxurious dining experience for both locavores and flower enthusiasts with a hearty portion of local, seasonal flowers at the center of it.

Dinner on a flower farm truly drives the slow flower movement home. When you buy flowers locally—say at Boulder Farmers Market, Whole Foods or Lucky’s in Boulder‑—you’re helping support local jobs and the economy. Local flowers create a smaller transportation footprint and help to preserve farmland. You’re also doing the important work of promoting more sustainable and environmentally-sound practices.

THE BARRE EFFECT ARTICLE ELLEN NORDBERG

The Barre Method

58

Boulder Lifestyle | September 2015

“B

arre Burn,” “Bar Method,” “Dailey Barre,” “Power Barre,” “Pure Barre,” “VertiBarre.” The IDEA Group Fitness Trend Watch named barre classes as a top trend for 2015. What’s up with new workouts using old school ballet barres and taking over Boulder and Denver health clubs and fitness boutiques? Is it ballet? Dance? Pilates? Yoga? Turns out barre formats can be all of the above.

ROOTS

Many of the latest barre techniques have developed out of the teachings of Lotte Berk, a European ballet dancer in the 1950s who worked with an osteopath to create exercises focused on building core stability. Contemporary barre workouts use similar micro-movements for stretching and toning with particular emphasis

CONTINUED >

THE BARRE EFFECT (CONTINUED)

on form and alignment, and generally with some infusion from kinesiology and physical therapy.

PURPOSE

Laura Henderson, owner of The Bar Method in Denver, explains, “It’s designed to create long, lean and sculpted muscles.

It’s for anyone who wants a challenging workout with attention to form, technique and safety.”

Lexi Bulich, regional group fitness manager for Colorado Athletic Clubs, adds that barre classes are rooted in the disciplines of grace and ballet. "They include small, controlled movements, isometric holds, and high repetitions that tighten and tone your entire body.”

GOALS

The intentions behind barre workouts dovetail nicely with the goals women often express when seeking their ideal workout.

“Women come to their trainer or instructor and say, ‘Please help me flatten my tummy, tone my thighs, tighten the skin under my arms,’” says Dana Bennett, group exercise coordinator for Lakeshore Athletic Club in Broomfield. “Our Power Barre classes are very targeted and specific to the muscles people want to work.”

Amy Chesterton, Bar Method Boulder owner, adds, “Barre based workouts are a hot trend because it’s a low impact exercise that effectively tones the entire body in one efficient hour.”

ACCESSIBILITY

Barre workouts tend to be accessible for a variety of ages and fitness levels, with many studios offering beginner or basic level classes.

60

Boulder Lifestyle | September 2015

“You think you have to be a dancer, and you think you have to be flexible, but you don’t have to be either of those,” says Mish Metz, Pure Barre Boulder owner. “If you can hold onto the barre, you can do anything we do in class.”

DIFFERENCES

While the theories behind barre formats are often similar, individual class experiences can vary widely. The physical barres can be bolted to the studio walls which enable participants to work their core more intensely, or some barres are portable which can afford instructors more creative flexibility. Some studios use workouts that are scripted by corporate, while many clubs feature classes developed by individual instructors. Some classes are slow and deliberate, while others are faster paced or more interval driven. Class size can range from eight students to 40, with smaller classes enabling instructors to offer hands on modifications and adaptations.

NOT FOR EVERYONE

While most venues emphasize safety and proper form and alignment to prevent injury, barre classes may not be for everyone. Some classes may be safe for pregnant women, but some studios discourage anyone from initiating a barre routine after becoming pregnant. Most professionals agree people with neck, hip, low back or knee issues should consult their doctor for approval and seek modifications from their instructor.

“As a pilates and Barre Burn instructor, I have seen an increase of low back, knee, and hip issues as a result of some barre classes,” says Tracy Martino, a barre instructor for Colorado Athletic Clubs who has been teaching group fitness for 26 years. “People with knee injuries and knee replacement need to be cautious.”

RAISING THE BARRE

The latest trend from Vertical Method in San Francisco turns the barre on its end. At Wendy McClure’s Boulder Body Dynamics studio, barres reach from ceiling to floor for VertiBarre class.

“Turning the barre vertically with three points of spinal contact, you’re working to get strong from the basic platform of proper spinal alignment,” McClure says. “If we’re not in proper spinal alignment, the stronger muscles keep getting stronger, and the weaker muscles keep getting weaker.”

Working with a vertical bar emphasizes what she refers to as “posture fitness.”

“We have all these motions that create roundedness (of the spine,)” McClure says. “Running, cycling, computers, sitting – we’re always flexed forward. The VertiBarre workout focuses on the back body.”

In addition to vertical barres, the future also includes a new barre specific studio within a health club at the Colorado Athletic Club Union Station, opening in early 2016.

PASSION AND RESULTS

The Dailey Method’s Emma Heckman sums up the popularity and success of barre formats.

“I think people have fallen in love with the efficiency and focus of one hour on the entire body,” she says. “It’s a mindful practice that unites balance of the mind and body so well. And it’s amazing how quickly people see physical results.”

Metz agrees, saying, “The passion from all of us for Pure Barre just gets greater. It’s a formula and it works. Try it because it’s going to change your life.”

WORTHY OF THE FOLLOW:

This life and style blog focuses on personal style, fashion, fitness, travel and reviews of local restaurants, hotels and attractions. We fell in love with Lacey's Instagram because it was engaging and so versatile, plus you can see her personality shine through each post. We headed out with Lacey to Red Rocks and she showed us one of her favorite early morning circuits to get the body moving.

RED ROCKS WORKOUT

"Red Rocks is one of my favorite places to work out. Not only are the stairs killer, but you've got a gorgeous view to look at while you sweat it out! This 20-minute circuit is great when you combine with running up the stairs at Red Rocks for the perfect combination of strength training and cardio," says Spruce.

PHOTOGRAPHY COLLEEN KELLY

1. WALKING PUSH-UPS: Start in a push up position with hands on the upper stair and feet on the bottom. Do one push up, then at the top take a step out with your arms and legs, then do another push up. Do 10 to the left and 10 to the right.

3. TRICEP DIPS: Face the stage with your hands on the edge of the stair. Walk your legs out straight. Bend your arms to lower yourself down, then squeeze your triceps to press back up.

For more of a challenge, try alternating lifting your legs with each dip. Do 15 reps total.

2. STEP-DOWN SQUATS WITH SIDE LEG LIFT: Facing sideways on the 4. STEP UPS: Facing the stairs, edge of the stair, take a step down take a step up with one leg, with the outside leg coming into a bringing the other leg in tosquat position. Use the standing ward your chest (use your leg to lift yourself back up and abs!). Step back down and rethen lift the outside leg using your peat on the other side. Do 24 outer thigh. Do 15 on each side. total. (12 on each side.)

Repeat this circuit as many times as you can in 20 minutes. For an added challenge, run up the stairs, do the circuit, then run down the stairs and do the circuit. Your body will thank you!

Mika Yoga Wear has quickly become one of my go-to's for cute workout wear. Their fabrics are so comfortable, flattering, and come in so many bright colors and prints.

Designed for movement, they never lose their shape, and are functional for everything from running to yoga to circuit training and beyond. Zella, Nordstrom's inhouse activewear brand, is another one of my favorites.

They always offer trendier styles and the live-in leggings are so comfortable that you truly do want to live in them. Mixing fun prints with basics is a great way to look forward to working out because, let's face it: having good workout gear will make you want to show it off.

Shoes are from Boulder Running Company, just the best.

Zeal Food ENTHUSIASTICALLY BOULDER

Boulder Lifestyle | September 2015

I look at Zeal as the solution to the vexing problem that so often eating out means eating down.

"Paying up to eat down" is what I like to call it.

- Wayde Jester

Hot Spot

Z

eal - Food for Enthusiasts, located in the heart of iconic Pearl Street, is “something special,” as described by owner Wayde Jester. Zeal is loaded with paleo, organic, local and delicious fare for enthusiasts and non alike. We visited the bright, modern bistro and were met with smiling chefs and baristas whose commitment to “real” food shone through at every angle to customers.

Zeal offers breakfast, lunch, small plates, and dinner items as well as an extensive array of juices for the “conscious cleanser.”

“Zeal” means great energy or enthusiasm in pursuit of a cause or an objective. To say this definition fits is an understatement. Wayde Jester, in his own words, “shut the door on [his] old career … because [he] felt like Zeal was needed in this world.” Jester sought out to remedy the lack of quality, local and responsibly produced ingredients missing from the food scene, citing the expression “paying up to eat down.”

He found that restaurants whose missions included serving healthy, unprocessed, and organic food items were often expensive and did not cater to the breakfast or lunch crowd.

So, without having the “first clue about what it takes to run a successful restaurant,” Jester followed his gut and opened the doors to Zeal - Food for Enthusiasts. The rest is history.

Delicious history.

Our first stop on the menu was the Cauliflower Wings ($8), sure to appeal to the pickiest of meat-eaters. The sauce is supremely Buffalo-style with a hint of lemon tahini that adds the perfect zing. This appetizer can be washed down with a “drink the rainbow” Juice Flight ($8). All juices are cold pressed, organic, and run on taps. We are not in Tropicana land anymore, Dorothy.

This is pure, unadulterated Boulder. And we love it. Those who seek out zesty, tart treats will love the House Pickles & Ferments ($7), which consist of kraut, kimchi and a chef’s choice. Both plates are perfect for sharing with a group, making it easy to try multiple appetizer items.

For the main course, it does not have to be Tuesday to enjoy the Paleo Jicama Shell Tacos ($12). Loaded with chicken, beef or fish and a huge helping of flavor, these tacos can be shared as well (though we won’t judge if keep them for yourself). If tacos aren’t your forte, the Colorado Striped Bass ($19) is a local treasure, paired with fingerlings and grilled asparagus that looks almost too good to eat. Almost.

Zeal speaks volumes about community. The attention to detail surrounding all aspects of the food preparation allow for Celiacs, vegans, food allergy sufferers and “regular Janes and Joes” to enjoy a meal together without the worry surrounding the restaurant’s ingredients. This is where the “food for enthusiasts” subtitle comes into play. Jester’s explanation, “You don’t have to be one to enjoy Zeal, but for those that ‘get it,’ it's so much more than just a meal out,” helps explain what keeps people coming back. Not only do the food dishes reflect the owner’s original vision of serving “a delicious meal that feeds your soul while nourishing your body,” so do the staff. Zeal is a team effort on every front, and when people come together for a common goal, the effect on the customer is profound. ZealFood.com

8 for Fall Fashion WITH ELIZABETH ROSE

1

1. J BRAND JOHNNY BOYFRIEND JEAN

25 This is the year for the looser jean. I just know it. As a shop

owner, I see TOO MANY women trying to make skinny

jeans work for them, because they are afraid to venture beyond that style. A looser fit in general is so flattering on so

many shapes and sizes. Leaving a little to the imagination is never a bad thing. Especially with denim.

2. FREE PEOPLE JERSEY ON THE EDGE BRA.

Available at Eleanor. It’s impossible not to feel sexy wearing this bra. Weather I’m in sweats at home or a hot date on a Saturday night. You can’t go wrong with the style and comfort of this staple piece.

3

3. LINUS SCOUT Available at Vecchio's.

I can't wait to cruise into fall on this beautiful bike! The cool temps in the coming

months are the perfect excuse for ditching

the car and riding in style. My daughter,

London, is almost big enough to join me on

the back, and I have a feeling we'll put some serious miles in before the year is over.

5. ACE & JIG ONESIE

Available at Nod & Rose Storehouse.

There is such a frenzy for anything Ace & Jig these days that I'm rarely able to get my hands on any extra pieces from my own shop! BUT I fought for this onesie and it's been worth every penny. If ever a piece was created to transition from late summer to early fall, this would be it. Just a warning for all you readers that live in Boulder. I'm sorry in advance for how often you'll see me in this. Ha!

4. LE LABO This magical perfumery has yet to produce a scent I haven't absolutely loved. The Santal 26 candle is my secret weapon when entertaining. Your house can literally be turned upside down, and all my guests can say is, "What is that amazing smell?" Ha!

6. NICHOLAS K NOVA JACKET

Available at Nod & Rose.

In a perfect world, I would have an entire store of Nicholas K. I've been a devoted fan for so long now, and every season I still get so excited when that first fall shipment arrives. His outerwear collection has such a feminine edginess to it, you can't

you're just grocery shopping at Whole Foods.

7. GRAF & LANTZ ANNIE CLUTCH

Available at Eleanor. Wool and leather

in the same sentence, what’s not to love

about that. This just screams fall. Enough said.

Jacket: There's no greater wardrobe staple than the denim jacket. This tweed and denim jacket is a great grown-up version of the beloved classic. You can throw it on over a basic t-shirt, or wear with a flirty dress. The denim and tweed together makes it extremely versatile.

Burberry took the classic shearling lined jacket and perfected it for the feminine figure. “It hugs the body in all the right places and will keep you warm through the winter.”

JACKET

Dress: Denim at work is not just for casual Fridays.This dress has the perfect feminine shape with peplum details and contrast ruffle—a perfect statement piece for the otherwise mundane workplace.

Workwear: Raoul Dark denim belted dress Jumper: This London-based designer rocked the fall fashion runway. This jumpsuit is made of a blend of denim and wool, making it perfect for those chilly fall nights. “Paired with knee high boots, its definitely not like any denim you’ve ever worn."

Vanessa Seward Dark denim jumpsuit

Fall brings out the best of designers' new collections, but to translate it into our own closets can be difficult. Denim is always a staple when the leaves begin to change. These are some of the best new fall pieces to vamp up our love of denim (and to not be stuck in the same old jeans)." -- Jessica Wenger 82

his salad is my favorite, super clean, super charged, healthiest version of all of my taco bowl variations. And the best part is, it is so delicious you will forget you are even doing something good for yourself. Although I am not vegan, I truly appreciate having a couple of solid vegan salads and meals I can whip up midweek when I am busy, or after an indulgent meal the night before when I am just craving vegetable, nutrient-packed goodness. This meal makes amazing leftovers, too. So perfect for lunch on the go the next day. Just omit the avocado from the leftovers and make sure to keep your dressing on the side.

What's Cooking?

(CONTINUED)

CHOPPED CHICKEN SALAD WITH HONEY MUSTARD DRESSING

Makes 5 Mason jar salads • 1 rotisserie chicken • 12 pieces of bacon, cooked and crumbled.

• 1 cup blueberries • 6 oz goat cheese • 1 cup chopped pecans • 1 cup mixed cherry tomatoes • 1 head of romaine lettuce 88

Boulder Lifestyle | September 2015

• 1 head of green lettuce • For honey mustard dressing • 1 cup sour cream • 1/4 cup mayonnaise • 1/4 cup dijion mustard • 1/4 cup honey • 1 tablespoon sesame oil For the salads, I like to start with cooking the bacon. I fry the bacon in my cast iron skillet, and let the pieces cool in paper towels. Once cool,

tear the bacon into pieces and set aside. While the bacon is cooking, chop the lettuce and the tomatoes. Since this is a chopped salad, I like to cut the lettuce thin at about a 1/2 of an inch long by a few inches wide. For the chicken, I like to pull off all the meat by hand so it is nice and shredding. Be sure to discard the skin for a more lean salad. To make the dressing, simply hand whisk the ingredients into a bowl. Add salt and pepper to taste. Then add a small splash of water to get your desired consistency. 1 to 2 tablespoons will do the job.

Now you are ready to assemble! The trick to the Mason jar salad is wet on the bottom and dry on the top. Start with the dressing. Then add tomatoes, pecans and chicken. Then add the first type of lettuce, romaine, followed by blueberries, goat cheese and bacon. Top the jars off with a little more lettuce. You are all set with a week’s worth of salads!

You can also pack these salads for an afternoon in the park with family and friends. Simply keep the jars chilled in the cooler and pour into a bowl to enjoy.
