Deborah E Johnson

We love our special little town so much, and feel so excited to have some exciting projects brewing downtown! More details to come but I’m looking forward to loving on our community with food- the best love language of all, right?

You might recognize this photo from the cover of my cookbook On Rising, a dream of mine that I am now so proud to be able to share with you all. For those of you who are new here, I’m Deborah Johnson and my happy place is around the table - long, lingering meals, with lots of laughter. Is there a better way to say “I love you” than a home-cooked meal, or a better place to listen than around a table? No matter who you are cooking form every meal is an opportunity to spread that life-changing love. And maybe today more than ever, that is precisely what we need more of. Choosing to take care of ourselves and others changes everything.
If this resonates with you, pull up a chair and dig in as we share what’s delicious and beautiful together!
