Opened in 1964, the original Graff Dairy was a Grand Junction favorite for 60 years. Known for its fresh, hometown milk and legendary ice cream, Graff Dairy had scores of loyal customers throughout the decades. Perhaps it was the secret recipe loaned to Graff from the Enstrom family that made the dairy so celebrated, or the sense of ownership felt by the community, but many were saddened when Graff closed its doors in August of 2014-seemingly forever.
In 2015 local entrepreneur Darin Carei purchased the property and announced to much celebration that he would reopen Graff. The original building has been doubled in size and fully renovated. In 2022, the Beauchamp family purchased Graff Dairy and have continued the tradition of offering amazing ice cream and expanding the line of ice cream treats, food items, gourmet popcorn, specialty coffees, and so much more!!!
1. To continue the tradition of a locally owned, family friendly establishment, complete with the best ice cream on the Western Slope, homemade novelties, and a nice environment in which to enjoy them.
2. To, above all, provide hope and opportunity to every one of our employees. We see this hope as being built by their hands-on experience of creating success even greater than they imagined and creating a better future through knowing their ability to learn, grow, and succeed. We see opportunity presented through challenges of work ethic, interpersonal dynamics, and humility learned while dealing with the many complexities within the workplace.
Someone once said, "Change brings opportunity." We say, "Opportunity brings change."
Thank you very much for being a part of the Graff Dairy experience.
