Meet Aimee Hutson, the woman behind Aunt Helen’s Café, a Greeley staple that serves up bold flavors with a side of snark. Inspired by her real-life Great Aunt Helen—a woman known for her sharp wit, fierce independence, and a no-nonsense approach to life—Aimee built a business that reflects that same personality.

In this episode of Greeley Business Beat, Aimee shares how a casual dinner conversation led to the creation of one of downtown Greeley’s favorite spots, the challenges of running a small business, and why she made the leap from education to entrepreneurship. She also talks about how Aunt Helen’s has evolved over time, how the pandemic pushed her business in unexpected new directions, and the deep-rooted community spirit that keeps Greeley thriving.

Come experience the essence of community at Aunt Helen's, where every cup of coffee serves a purpose beyond just taste. Swing by Monday through Friday from 7:00 AM to 5:00 PM, or on weekends from 8:00 AM to 4:00 PM.
