Rachel’s Story
Growing up in the Wisconsin countryside, I developed a
passion to know where my food comes from. I also made a
habit of reading every single food label due to my life
threatening food allergies. Being informed about the
ingredients in processed foods, combined with the knowledge
of growing and making my own, I embarked on my clean eating
journey. In 2016, I launched my blog Roots and
Rosemary where I share unique recipes, healthy living tips,
and food allergy insights.
I now live on 20 acres with my husband, two ponies, and puppy at the Fricke Farmhouse. We have a huge garden and hope to add some chickens to the family this year. Given my passion for sustainable agriculture, I am currently working on my MSc in Global Food Security and Nutrition from the University of Edinburgh.
