I just wrapped up 5 years as Executive Chef for events and Farm to Table dinners at the Smokebrush Foundation in Manitou Springs, Colorado. Creating seasonal Farm to Table menus is what I truly love to do. To be able to showcase in new and perhaps unimagined ways our local organic produce, grains and meats, native as well as medicinal plants, is such a creative joy for me. It becomes an educational experience for you in addition to a culinary journey.

Sourcing local, high quality ingredients not only allows you to enjoy the flavors of the season, but it’s also healthier, nutrient dense and more sustainable.
