Farm-to-table Retreat Chef

United States

• Retreat Chef

I am a retreat chef, seasonal cook, and regenerative food practitioner with five years of organic farming experience and a deep love for creating nourishing atmospheres. My cooking weaves farm-to-table ingredients, herbal tonics, broths, ferments, and ancestral foodways with storytelling and ritual. I design plant-forward, nutrient-rich menus that support transformation, creativity, and healing while honoring local landscapes and producers. Experienced in wilderness programs, adult retreats, plated meals, and multi-day immersions, I bring grounded presence, adaptability, and strong kitchen organization to every retreat I support.
