Crista Luedtke on Savoring Sonoma: The Hour (Aired: October 8, 2023)
This week on Savoring Sonoma: The Hour, Clark’s guest is neighbor and fellow redwood resident Crista Luedtke, Proprietor of Boon, Resort and Spa, Boon Eat + Drink, and Brot. Sometimes called a serial entrepreneur, Luedtke comes from a restaurant family but meandered her way back into the business after other very different forays into academic, medical and professional fields. Her collection of projects in and around the little town of Guerneville – often then sold to partners and friends – has been part of a local renaissance that has weathered flood, fire and pandemic, building a resilience at the heart of the hospitality industry that is inspiring, resonant, and well positioned to the constantly recalibrating industries where she apparently thrives.
Savoring Sonoma is heard Second and fourth Sunday's at 6:00 pm PT on KRCB 104.9.
