About Renée
Welcome to Nourish The Roots. Here, you will find a collection of recipes, herbal medicine wisdom, seasonal and natural living information, and everyday musings on all things nourishing. I have a passion for beautiful whole foods and preparing them in ways that showcase their unique tastes, colors, and health benefits. I also believe strongly in the healing power of immersing oneself in nature and living in tune with the rhythm of the seasons. Also, everything I create and share has an eye for beauty. Because beauty heals, as well.
I'm a licensed registered nurse who realized that the conventional approach to healthcare had no emphasis on holistic health or prevention of disease through nutrition and lifestyle, so I decided not to practice in a conventional setting. Instead, I chose to carve my own path as a professional cook, recipe developer and food photographer, herbalist, holistic homemaker, gardener, forager, and mother. I love showing people that it is possible to eat and live in such a way that deeply nourishes the body and benefits the planet.
I currently live on a rural island in the Pacific Northwest where I am the head chef and master gardener of my household. I am also a caretaker of a small flock of chickens.
