It’s a bird, its a plane, its..a glider? Anyone living or passing through Boulder this summer are sure to have seen white winged gliders floating over the plains and flatirons. Boulder Edge met up with Boulder’s very own soaring society to get an inside look at what this form of flight is all about.

Olomomo Nut Company

boulderedgetv — Tue, 07 Aug 2012 14:43:49 +0000

You must think we’re nuts for not giving you a video for so long! Well, here’s a local Boulder story that you can crunch into – the Olomomo Nut Company. You’ve probably enjoyed their delicious flavored roasted nuts in your local coffee shop or grocery store, but did you know how it all got started? We met up with Olomomo founder and Boulder native Justin Perkins to find out more.

“Inspired by Steve the nut guy at a farmers market in DC, I moved back to my hometown of Boulder, CO and bought a nut roaster. After hours of experimentation, some luck, and lots of input from my creative wife and foodie friends, the Olomomo nut was born. The Good Nuts.As soon as we set up the first Olomomo farmer’s market stand in Boulder, CO, we started hearing ‘these are the best nuts I’ve ever tasted.’ Not long after, we started to distribute through coffee shops, were featured on the Cooking Channel, Good Morning America and are now launching a national nut brand.”

The Empty Places Documentary

boulderedgetv — Sun, 24 Jun 2012 02:18:03 +0000

Here at Boulder Edge TV, we believe everyone has a captivating story to tell, and Boulder native Ralena Gordon is no exception. For the past five years, she has traveled to hundreds of mental institutions across the United States to craft a feature length documentary about the history of mental illness in our country. Her feature documentary “The Empty Places” contains beautiful photography, vivid narration, and first hand accounts from former patients, family, and staff. We met up with Ralena to learn more about this fascinating work in progress. From her website:

As I have begun gathering the stories that fill the empty places, the thing that I have come to recognize is that the people, both staff members and former patients, do not want to be forgotten. They want their stories to be told … their stories to be heard. They wish for this life and these struggles to have meaning. If we can listen to these stories of our past, learn from our history, we may not make the same mistakes and our future decisions will be better foar it.

Check out The Empty Places website to learn how you can help support this wonderful project.
