Building a Business: Dave Bauman

Dave Bauman, a two-time guest on the Buckle Up Podcast Universe, has officially taken the leap into entrepreneurship 

After sharing his insights and life experiences on the podcast, Dave decided to branch out and pursue something he’s been passionate about for a long time: building a business that serves people and strengthens the local community. His journey into opening Orange Leaf is rooted not just in entrepreneurship, but in service — to his employees, his customers, and the town itself.

Dave is deeply hands-on with every aspect of the business. From getting the doors open to mentoring and supporting his employees, he leads with intention, transparency, and respect. His goal isn’t just to run a successful yogurt shop — it’s to help build up Aledo, collaborate with local organizations, and create a welcoming space where families, students, and neighbors can gather.

Community involvement is at the core of Dave’s mission. He believes strongly in giving back, working with the town, and being a business owner who shows up — not just as an employer, but as a partner to the people around him. That mindset is exactly what makes this venture special.

Congratulations to Dave on turning vision into action. This is more than a business — it’s a community investment, and we’re proud to support it.
