About Chef Jones
For over a decade, I dedicated myself to public service—serving people during some of the most difficult moments of their lives. It was a destined path that deepened my appreciation for life’s joys and taught me the equal importance of cherishing every good moment.
As I move forward in my professional journey as a personal chef, my mission remains rooted in service—this time, helping people celebrate life’s most meaningful occasions. Through thoughtfully crafted food and luxurious, memorable experiences, I bring people together to savor the present, honor their milestones, and create lasting memories with those they love.
More than Organic...It is Natural
We grew up knowing the land, not just living on it. Long before “organic” became a label in grocery stores, we gathered our food with our hands and hearts. We picked collard greens by the gallon from community gardens, walked around the block to buy fruit from the back of a truck, and grew vegetables in our backyards. The trees gave us plums, pecans, and pears, and we knew what to do with them all—bake pies, share with neighbors, and store them for later.
We sipped honeysuckle nectar from fresh blossoms, pretending it was candy—our secret treat from nature, hidden in the hedgerows and only sweet for those who knew where to look. We canned peaches, made jams from scratch, and whipped up chow chow with just the right balance of sweet and heat. On porches, we shelled purple-hulled peas and shared stories that fed us in more ways than one.
We fished, we bartered, and we connected with local farmers to source beef that fed our families through the seasons. It was a way of life—rooted in respect, rhythm, and real food. It wasn’t trendy. It wasn’t branded. It is natural. It is ours.
