About this episode

Dave Krick discusses building a good business and his impact on the Boise community.

What does it mean to build a truly "good" business? This week on Radio Boise, we sit down with a man who has spent nearly 30 years answering that exact question. Dave Krick is a Boise community powerhouse. As the founding partner of the Just Eat Local restaurant group, Dave redefined downtown dining by putting local farms and sustainability at the center of the plate at Bittercreek Alehouse, Red Feather Lounge, and Diablo & Sons. Now, he’s bringing that same ethos to his newest venture, Woodland Empire Alecraft. But his impact goes way beyond the kitchen. From the Boise Farmers Market board to founding the Dandelion Festival and the non-profit City of Good, Dave is fueled by an undeniable passion for local agriculture, eliminating waste, and lifting up his community. In this episode, we trace Dave's journey back to the beginning, get a sneak peek at what he's building next, and discover what drives one of the city's most dedicated changemakers. Get ready to be inspired!
