I’m an avid gardener and enjoy cooking with fresh, seasonal ingredients. I have a (small) vegetable and herb garden, perennial gardens and a few varieties of blueberries in my small but abundantly planted urban yard. I enjoy stalking farmers markets for fresh vegetables throughout the year and participate in a beautiful, local farm patron program, which operates like a CSA, but offers me more choice and flexibility.

I love food, cooking and health, living a mindful, sustainable lifestyle and understanding the intersection of these things. I enjoy the challenge of learning about eating and living in support of health and the creation of a better world.

Nourishing Words allows me to share these passions. My greatest hope is that my actions and the information I share here might contribute to some greater good; there’s a lot that needs to be done. I believe that taking personal actions, even small ones, is an important way of creating positive change in the world.

I live, learn, write, cook, eat and garden from my zone five Concord, New Hampshire home.
