Natural Chef Services
Food is Art
Cooking is an embodied art form we delight in. Each meal is created with loving intention and joy! Don’t be surprised if you find us dancing and singing in the kitchen. We love crafting meals that dazzle the senses knowing that each morsel is an experience you will savor.
Food becomes People
We know the food we source and transform will become a part of you! That’s why we focus on sourcing locally, seasonally, and organically, using the highest quality ingredients available.
Food that fuels the Work
We are really interested in supporting people who are doing the work, whether that be social and environmental justice, personal and collective healing, or the work of remembering how to play! We want to provide nourishing foods full of vitality so you can feel supported and cared for as you focus on the work at hand.
Food is Medicine
As a multidisciplinary healer and tender of relationships and the earth, we know that food is medicine. Our menus reflect this and can be personalized to your health needs and desires.
