    About Saladarity

    Green Fine Salad Co., a Denver-based company opened its third local location in April, 2014 at 707 Seventeenth Street -- but this outpost will have another name: Saladarity. This new prototype is trademarked. "Green Fine Salad is a name we couldn't protect, so we came up with Saladarity, which we have trademarked," says founder Gerry Weber.
