Hey, I’m Kerry! Recipe developer, bread enthusiast and founder of Harvest & Nourish. I’m so glad you’re here.

Behind the blog

How it all started

Kerry credits her love of cooking to her mother, an incredible self-taught cook who made everything from scratch. Baking, batch-cooking and preserving seasonal harvests to sustain her farm family through Canadian winters.

Over the years, Kerry began experimenting with different types of cuisines and cooking methods, and has extended this approach to more daily staples like dressings, sauces, stocks, simple weeknight dinners and more.

With decades of experience and a background in communications, public policy and PR, in 2020 she started Harvest & Nourish—a celebration of the artisan breads and simple, wholesome recipes made in her prairie kitchen.

Kerry lives in Manitoba, Canada with her extended family, a thriving garden and her (very food driven) cat, Charlotte.
