Hi, I’m Kelly

Producer and host of The Original Fare on PBS Food, & founder of House of Creature.

I design immersive experiences, seasonal kits, and sensory-driven gatherings that bring people closer to nature, community, and the regional food systems that sustain us.

Through retreats, pop-up dinners, and my farm-based pantry offerings, House of Creature creates space to reconnect—with place, each other, and what nourishes us most.
