About

Kori Kanayama

I’m a community farm chef available for live-in chef assignments, group cooking events, and intimate catering. I cook seasonal foods in harmony with nature, respecting the innate flavors and goodness of ecologically grown local produce. I adapt time-honored Japanese and Italian approaches to unfussy great food, Blue Zones eating, and the wisdom of Chinese Traditional Medicine to create authentic dishes that nourish and heal you from the inside.

Nourishing, authentic food as the entryway to a space where we listen to each other.

Hear from our community members who have enjoyed delicious seasonal dining and enriching cooking workshops.

Kori put my end-of-season sweet corn in her venison pot roast for an early fall farm crew lunch. GENIUS.

The best meal I’ve had in a long time. And Kori teaches gently about eating for better health.

Workshop Participant

A beautiful experience, powerful healing. Haven’t felt nourished like that, like ever. Kori was in the flow, making sure everyone was at ease.
