Episode 50: Tracy Hayhurst

Send us Fan MailTracy whips up moxie every time she steps into her kitchen. A Ballymaloe-educated chef, organic farmer, and food educator, she is passionate about mixing those ingredients to create meaningful experiences for people through her new adventure, Undermountain Pantry Cooking School and Microbakery.Tracy is a creative local food systems entrepreneur evolving her work by owning and managing CSAs for Chubby Bunny and Husky Meadows Farms, coordinating education and outreach for Plantin’ Seeds, and serving as culinary director at Seed and Spoon. All those endeavors fed into her mission to design seasonal, fun, and educational culinary workshops and meals at Undermountain Pantry. Tracy’s jam is helping people become attached to local and seasonal food, building community through sharing delicious, nutritious food, and helping her students develop culinary skills to take back into their home kitchens and make some moxie of their own. Through her farming and culinary pursuits, she has learned to listen to her gut, letting her intuition guide her to places that feel authentic and true. She has gained the gift of patience, cultivating relationships and skills that may bear fruit in the future. This way of leaning into her life is integral to her moxie. ResourcesUndermountain Pantry Cooking School and MicrobakeryBallymaloe Cookery SchoolSocial Media Undermountain Pantry InstagramSupport the show
