Healdsburg Shed Loses General Manager and Chef

The owner declined to comment on their departure, according to a food blog.

Healdsburg's new towering mecca for foodies and cooks has lost two key employees.

The San Francisco Chronicle's Inside Scoop SF blog reports that the Healdsburg Shed's General Manager Kenny Rochford and Chef Niki Ford have both left the operation.

Rochford parted with the Shed last month, and Ford left last week, Inside Scoop SF reported.

“As always, personnel matters are confidential, except to say that we’re so grateful to Niki and Kenny for all they’ve done to help launch Shed,” owner Cindy Daniel told the blog. “They are valued members of the Shed family.”

Sous chef Jenna Sprafkin is in charge of the kitchen in the meantime, Inside Scoop SF reported.

The two-story Shed opened its doors in May, and offers a market of cooking supplies and pantry essentials, as well as an entire floor dedicated to community talks and workshops on gardening, cooking and other topics.

Healdsburg Shed is located at 25 North St.
