I grew up with flour on the counter and two very different grandmothers shaping how I see food and family. My Granny taught me that food was love, that a loaf of bread or a pan of biscuits could gather people and make them feel cared for. My other grandma was a retired cook from the riverboat, with the kind of kitchen grit and know-how that comes from feeding crowds. Between the two of them, I learned that food is both heart and craft.

Turquoise Morning Homestead is where that heritage meets my own story. I’m a millennial mom who grew up on '90s snacks and VHS tapes, now raising my boys with homemade bread on the counter, flowers on the table, and a booth full of turquoise accents and mermaid sparkle.

Here you’ll find more than just loaves and cookies. TMH is about bread, blooms & home, small-batch baked goods, hand-tied bouquets, and homestead touches, along with seasonal produce from our garden when it’s available.

All of my baked goods are made in my home kitchen under Missouri Cottage Food Law, baked in small batches with the same care I use for my family. Every porch pickup, market day, or bouquet sold is another thread woven into that bigger vision: a Missouri homestead market of my own where faith, family, and community come together.
