🍕 Twin Peaks Pizzeria is the latest recipient of Discover Marana’s Taste of Marana STANDOUT Award.
And there’s a reason this neighborhood pizza place stands out.
Owner Ted Fisher has built Twin Peaks around quality, fresh ingredients and a hands-on approach that keeps him close to the work and the people who make it happen. That attention to detail is one of the reasons a member of the Marana community nominated him for the award.
But Ted’s impact goes beyond what comes out of the kitchen. He creates opportunities for his employees, shares his experience with other restaurant owners and continues to invest in the Marana community.
So Discover Marana stopped by Twin Peaks Pizzeria with a little surprise.
Watch as Ted tells the story behind his neighborhood pizza place, then see why he was selected for the Taste of Marana STANDOUT Award.
Twin Peaks Pizzeria: 7575 W. Twin Peaks Rd. Marana, Arizona

⏰Our clocks don’t change, our patio chairs come out and our mornings bring hot air balloons and returning birds to the desert sky.
Because fall works a little differently in Marana. 🌵
One quick Arizona time lesson: Most of the state, including Marana, does not observe daylight saving time. The Navajo Nation does, so clocks there fall back.
What tells you fall has arrived in Southern Arizona?

Today, the Arizona Game and Fish Department released 183 endangered Desert Pupfish into the 9-acre pond at El Rio Preserve as part of a Safe Harbor Agreement with the Town of Marana. This partnership provides an important opportunity to support the conservation and recovery of a native Arizona species while allowing the Town to demonstrate how public parks and recreational spaces can also serve as valuable wildlife habitat.
Making El Rio Preserve a suitable home for the Desert Pupfish required a tremendous amount of work and collaboration between the Town's Natural Resources and Parks teams. Staff invested significant time and effort into improving the pond's conditions, addressing seepage issues, reinforcing the berm, managing aquatic vegetation, and installing an aeration system to improve water quality and habitat conditions. These improvements helped prepare the pond to support the pupfish and provide a suitable environment for their long-term success.
It is a unique accomplishment for the Town of Marana to have an endangered species established within one of its public parks. The release represents an exciting milestone for El Rio Preserve and highlights the Town's ongoing commitment to conservation, habitat management, and responsible stewardship of its natural resources. It also demonstrates how partnerships between municipalities and state wildlife agencies can create meaningful conservation opportunities that benefit both wildlife and the community.

🐾 Talk about a cat with a great view!
Happy National Cat Day from Marana, where even our wildest cats know how to find their space. 🐈⬛
The Sonoran Desert is full of surprises, and spotting a bobcat perched on a cactus is a pretty wild reminder of the incredible wildlife that calls Marana home.
Bobcats are known to rest on elevated spots like ledges and outcrops, and even cacti! This behavior has also been documented by the Arizona-Sonora Desert Museum.
Have you ever spotted a bobcat in the wild? Share your sightings with us in the comments!
