Crooked Tree

• Crooked Tree was built on a dream, and in 2015 we took a leap of faith and started to share our delicious creations at our local Collingwood Farmers’ Market. I think it’s true when they say… “Everything happens for a reason.”  I developed a balance between avoiding common allergies from helping my son’s food restrictions, along with my childhood memories making fresh dishes with my grandparents.  It was my son’s food intolerances that drove me to practice different methods of making tasty food without feeling left out.  Being with my Oma & Grandma in the kitchen gave me an appreciation for quality home cooked meals, while using fresh veggies from the garden.  Wholesomeness and natural flavour without the added sugar was key.  The relationship of the two has been the bread & butter of my creations.
