Slow Food Boulder County Team

Our Team: Growing Community Through Real Food

In a fast-paced world, we’ve lost touch with where our food comes from — and the people who grow it.

Slow Food Boulder County is part of a global movement to change that. We support local, sustainable, and organic food, and believe that eating should nourish your body, support your community, and celebrate tradition.

Through shared meals, local connections, and hands-on learning, we help people slow down and rediscover the joy of real food.

Let’s protect what’s good — together.

Kelly Buenning

Originally from Missouri, Kelly Buenning has spent the past two decades engaging with local food systems across the U.S. — from working on farms to running farmers’ markets and teaching kids to garden. She’s been involved with Slow Food chapters in Wyoming and Kentucky, and is excited to continue that journey with Slow Food Boulder County. Now living in Niwot, Kelly co-owns Fritz Family Brewers with her husband and enjoys gardening, exploring Colorado, and chasing after her two young kids.

Kyle Wofford

Since moving to Boulder in 1997, Kyle has been passionate about healthy eating and supporting local food systems. He’s grateful to give back to the farmers and producers who’ve shaped his journey.

Outside of Slow Food, Kyle runs Hey Food, helping families reconnect with cooking. His biggest joy is being a dad — he and his son cook, explore the mountains, play soccer, and have traveled to all 50 states. Kyle believes sharing local producers’ stories is key to strengthening Boulder County’s food system.
