Signing up to be a worker share member at a CSA farm in Madison sparked many culinary adventures: working farmers' markets and farm-to-table restaurants, delivering produce for a collective of organic farms to Chicago area restaurants, owning a food cart and a jam business, and serving as farm chef on two different CSA farms. After relocating to Portland, Oregon to live in an Ecovillage and try her hand at growing food in community, a cross-country road trip completed the circle with a move back to upstate NY. Here she is connecting with farmers and chefs again in her work at Zinnia's Dinette and HGS Home Chef. An excellent baker, Lee is grateful for the opportunity to share her lifetime experience of creating a wide variety of delicious dishes.
