Hello from Wisconsin! I create seasonal, whole foods recipes that nourish and sustain. I believe that every small effort to eat seasonal, local, whole foods can be combined to make a greater impact on the environment and how we feel, so I author the food blog Roots and Radishes (rootsandradishes.com) to inspire this manner of cooking--seasonal recipes using whole foods that are also accessible, low effort, flavor-packed and nourishing. I also provide tips and educational content on how to infuse sustainable choices into your kitchen adventures when possible. So if you or your audience are interested in eating healthfully and sustainably, but need a practical and efficient approach, I'd love to connect!
