using food to
heal, nourish + connect
welcome
I’m Linda — a Functional Nutritionist, farm-centered chef, fermentation geek, microfarmer, and mountain athlete. My mission is to help you use food as nature’s most powerful medicine, the fuel for your adventures, and the currency of connection.
I offer one-on-one nutrition support; local and seasonal farm-centered catering; and group fermentation instruction.
how does functional nutrition
work for you?
Your body was born to function. It is a holistic, exquisitely interconnected network of systems with the imperative to thrive. Symptoms such as bloating, constipation, food sensitivities, joint pain, fatigue or energy swings, poor sleep quality, and skin abnormalities are signs of imbalance in one or more of these systems — and when one system is affected, the rest of the body is necessarily affected as well. Rather than treating your symptoms, functional nutrition addresses their root causes and works to restore your body to optimal functionality — using food as medicine, correcting nutrient deficiencies, healing the gut, and modifying eating behaviors.
Functional nutrition is personalized for your unique goals, specific symptoms, active lifestyle, and individual history.
Functional nutrition is all about YOU
local. seasonal. farm-centered catering.
I specialize in creating rustic meals that are as beautiful and nourishing as they are delicious. My food is local, seasonal, nutrient-dense, supports area food producers and artisans, and accommodates any dietary need such that every meal embodies a sense of abundance for every eater.
My favorite clients are outdoorsy soon-to-be newlyweds; endurance trail runners; adventure motorcyclists; and partners in natural resources conservation and protection.

fermentation workshops
As a nutritionist, chef, and scientist, I am fascinated by the interplay of microbes throughout our world — their journey from soil to food to gut; how they work to make our food more nutrient-dense and digestible; the impact they have on our health; and, of course, their delicious byproducts!
Interested in a workshop? I teach through local colleges, non-profit partners, through my nutrition practice, and by demand.
