Pull up a chair.
Join me for real conversations about food, farm life, family, work, and finding your way through the seasons that don’t always (ever?) go according to plan.
Welcome to the podcast!
What started as a place to share approachable recipes has grown into a community of people who want good food without making dinner harder than it needs to be.
I still believe a reliable recipe can make an ordinary day better.
But I also believe some of the most meaningful parts of life happen outside the recipe card—in the stories we tell, the lessons we learn, and the conversations we have when someone takes the time to sit down and listen.and figuring things out as we go.
Start here..
Well, Here I Am.
The first episode felt like the right place to begin—with an honest look at why I’m starting this podcast now.
I’m sharing a little of my story, what has changed behind the scenes, and why I’m ready to create space for conversations that go beyond recipes.
You’ll hear about life on our Illinois family farm, building This Farm Girl Cooks, raising a family through changing seasons, and what I hope this podcast can become.
