ABOUT

I'm a food and gardening enthusiast that is constantly exploring creative ways to grow, manage competition, and put to use all of the produce I harvest.  As a lifelong PacNW resident, I've grown up loving to cook with fresh vegetables, fruits, and locally sourced seafood and have a deep appreciation for maritime aquaculture.

​

Since I have minimal, if any (do cooking classes with wine count? 😂), culinary training, you will find most of my recipes to be geared towards those with a passion for food but without the technical culinary expertise.  My mission is to make cooking and gardening more approachable and provide people the confidence in the kitchen and outdoors. 

 

It's okay to fail, and sometimes that toast will burn or a deer will eat your entire garden, but that is part of the process. And I look forward to sharing my experiences learning, failing, and most importantly, growing, with you.
