Here’s Your Chef
Your Accidental Chef-in-Training
I have never considered myself a chef. I simply found myself, from childhood onward, learning to make food beside my grandmother Jane and my mother Kimberly. Handmade food was how they showed the people in their lives that they cared, and it became how I learned to do the same.
As early as I can remember, my birthday parties were filled with food the three of us made by hand. For my sixteenth birthday, I invited my friends and their mothers to celebrate together across generations. My mother, my grandmother, my boyfriend’s mother and her daughter, and I all cooked side by side. That kitchen became a pivotal lesson in the kind of care I wanted people to feel around food.
Food is a universal love language. It can cross language barriers, class, age, and background. Feeding someone says: you matter, you deserve to feel supported, and there is a place for you at the table.
I am still learning through family recipes, cooking shows, travel, restaurants, the seasons, and everything growing around us. I may have arrived here accidentally, but every Wild Indigo table is made with intention.

Guest Convenience Services
Custom Cakes + Royal Icing Cookies
Custom cakes, royal icing cookies, and celebration desserts made by Wild Indigo when possible or coordinated with one of our trusted bakers or local makers. Please order at least one week in advance so we have time to plan, bake, decorate, or source your request.
Wash + Dry Laundry Service
We’re happy to wash and dry multiple standard loads of laundry during your stay. Clothes are returned clean and dry, without folding.
Farmers Market + Grocery
Need something we don’t already offer? We’re happy to pick up requested groceries or farmers market finds when scheduling allows. Purchases are charged separately.
Occasion Alchemy
For birthdays, anniversaries, proposals, reunions, honeymoons, or simply because. We can create a small, artful arrival moment with personal details such as flowers or gathered greenery, candles, a handwritten note, and other touches. Special purchases are charged separately.
Wander + Graze Picnic
A forest-ready picnic packed with a little ceremony: basket, blanket, reusable plates and flatware, napkins, and a styled presentation. Elise Dixie Jane is something of a grazing-spread artist, with a particular knack for building abundant, beautiful charcuterie boards and grazing spreads. Choose provisions from the Wild Indigo menu, or ask us to source extras. Food and special purchases are charged separately.
Availability may vary with the season and the rhythms of the farm.
