Windmill Homes is opening its Greenspire model home as an official collection site for two essential community initiatives this holiday season. From now through December 15, the office serves as a Toys for Tots drop-off location, while food donations for the Weld County Food Bank are being accepted through November 24.
Toys for Tots Collection: Now Through December 15
Windmill Homes' downtown Windsor office is now an official Toys for Tots collection point. The program, run by the U.S. Marine Corps Reserve since 1947, ensures children in Windsor and throughout Weld County experience joy during the holidays.
What to donate:
-
New, unwrapped toys
-
No realistic-looking weapons or food items
-
Popular needs include toys for newborns and ages 10-14
Drop-off details:

Through: December 15, 2025

The beauty of Toys for Tots lies in its local impact. Every toy dropped off at the Windsor location stays within the community, helping families right here in town.
Weld County Food Bank Drive: Through November 24
Alongside Toys for Tots, Windmill Homes is collecting food donations for the Weld County Food Bank to support Thanksgiving meals for local families. The timing matters especially now, as changes to SNAP benefits have affected many Colorado households heading into the holidays.

-
Stuffing mix
-
Canned green beans
-
Canned corn
-
Canned fruit
-
Peanut butter
-
Tuna or chicken
Weld County Food Bank distributed 14.5 million pounds of food last year alone, with 60% being fresh produce, dairy, and meat. The organization serves one in four people in Weld County, including one in three children, through direct service programs and partnerships with over 70 nonprofit agencies across the region.
Drop-off details:
-
Location: 206 Blue Fortune Dr, Windsor, CO 80550

For those who prefer monetary donations, Weld County Food Bank can provide three meals for every dollar donated through their online donation portal.
Why Windmill Homes Participates
As a Windsor-based builder, Windmill Homes' connection to this community runs deep. The team lives here, works here, and builds complete communities like Greenspire at Windsor Lake here. Supporting neighbors during the holidays fits naturally into that approach.
The downtown Windsor office location makes participation convenient for community members. Whether you're already downtown for dinner, walking from Windsor Lake, or heading to one of Windsor's seasonal events, stopping by with a donation takes just a moment.
A can of green beans, a board game, or a bag of stuffing mix adds up when a community comes together.
A Community That Cares
Windsor's strong community spirit shows up in moments like these. From the Windsor Harvest Festival to impromptu gatherings at the lake, this town knows how to come together. Extending that spirit to families who need extra support during the holidays simply makes sense.
Stop by the downtown Windsor office with your donations, and thank you for being part of what makes this community special. Together, we're ensuring more Windsor families can enjoy the holidays surrounded by warmth, food, and joy.
Windmill Homes builds designer-crafted homes in thoughtfully planned communities throughout Northern Colorado. Learn more about life in Windsor or explore available homes at Greenspire at Windsor Lake.
