About Us
Matt Jennings: Executive Chef, Master Cheesemonger, Owner
Matt, Executive Chef, Co-owner and Master Cheesemonger of Farmstead, has been handling, selling and falling in love with all things cheese since 1995- while at culinary school in Vermont. Since then, he has worked as a Chef, as well as across the country for numerous artisan cheese stores, wholesalers, and producers. Matt has also spent time in Europe studying with Master Cheesemongers and Cheesemakers in the United Kingdom, France and Italy.
Kate Jennings: Pastry Chef, Owner
Kate is a classically trained Pastry Chef and Co-owner of Farmstead, who is most content when her hands are in the flour. Kate describes her style as “Rustic yet refined”. Although she enjoys pushing the envelope with such recipes as “Sausisson and Ricotta Torta”, or “Pumpkin and White Chocolate Cheesecake”, she often defers to the classics. “..There is just nothing better than a chocolate chip cookie and a glass of cold milk”. We couldn’t agree more.
