We toss our local sourdough into a 900 degree oven, freeze it immediately, top it, then vacuum seal it. When you bake it at home, it is very close to the authentic in-person experience, down to the aroma of the char on the crust.

We are so excited to launch our Local Frozen Pizza. Midwest ingredients deliciously served at home.

Our first drop…just dropped. Orders close on the 28th. Get them while you can!

Pickup and delivery begins November 2.

a new way to dine with us 🪻
we’ve partnered with our good friend Billy Turner to bring you a very special dining venue for the season. from now through new years, book Local Effort at a gorgeous old firehouse, right across the street from the State Fair grounds.
this place is PERFECT for parties. i’m talking holiday parties, sports games, bachelor and bachelorette parties, and all sorts of celebrations. it’s also great for media events, streaming, brand ambassador-style popups, political fundraising?
fine dining, multi course tasting menus, or low key pizza parties. whatever you need.
