My name is Megan and I am passionate about sharing my love of food with others. From growing fresh, delicious fruits and vegetables in the garden, to creating a beautiful meal in my kitchen, to understanding what its doing for our bodies, I love to learn about food and cooking food for family and friends.
Growing up in a large family chaotic family as a kid where all the neighborhood kids came over and every holiday was spent in the kitchen and around the dinner table. At a very young age I took an interest in the kitchen and started cooking at around 5 when my mom bought me an old antique cast iron pan and I would make cookies and pancakes for my family. As I grew up I worked in the hospitality industries for decades, being naturally drawn to way of creating memories through food, drinks and service.
A little over 10 years ago I moved to Wisconsin and my first little town. I was introduced to gardening and my mom sent me my first box of seeds to help me out. I loved the idea of growing your own food and the calmness that tending to a garden brought with it. Having my children play in the garden and teaching them how things grow has been such a joy for me.
My favorite thing is to cook, taking the foods we grow, creating beautiful dishes with them and sharing these meals with family and friends. I am excited to share these things with you!
My Mission
My mission with this blog is to give you a place to come and learn about how to take fresh beautiful food and create delicious dishes to share with your family and friends. Learning about what we eat is important and gives what we eat more meaning. Sharing a meal made with love and intention creates more memories with each meal.
