Barbara has always enjoyed feeding people and has turned that passion into a second career. After 10 years in the computer industry, a business degree, living (and eating!) around the world and adding two children and a husband into the mix, Barbara moved to the Seattle area and graduated from the Seattle Central Culinary Academy.

She is passionate about keeping food simple, fresh, delicious and yet interesting.

Barbara joined Farm Kitchen in 2006 while attending Seattle Central Culinary Program. She and Hollis took on the task of streamlining our 1st Saturday Breakfast production and creating the bases for our current cooking and baking classes.
