Lleane Grimditch Hughes &
Stefan Hughes

Lleane is a Boulder native who grew up in the Devil’s Thumb neighborhood right here in south Boulder. Table Mesa has been her life long shopping center and she is thrilled to bring this specialty pet market to south Boulder. Lleane and her family are not strangers to the animal community in Boulder. They have been major players in both the Humane Society of Boulder Valley and the Guide Dogs for the Blind group here in Boulder. Lleane is passionate about science, food, and nutrition and how they intersect in the lives of our furry companions. Her undergraduate degree is in Biology and her masters degree is in sustainable food systems, so please bring all your questions about food and pets, she is here to help.

Stefan, a Vermont native, has lived in Boulder for 15 years. He attended the University of Colorado and was an alpine racer on the CU ski team. His passion for skiing (and Lleane) has kept him in Colorado where he works at Head Tyrolia as director of Race for world cup and olympic ski racers, plus youth development and race recruting. You will find Stefan often in the store fixing things and generally keeping us up and running with any behind the scenes business needs. Stefan is also building their family home in Boulder, where they plan to live for many years to come.
