Getty with seasonal food heart

Hi, I’m Getty! Your Fresh Food Educator

As a Professional Home Economist, cookbook author, and seasoned media spokesperson I show you how to select, store and serve seasonal produce all year round. I offer helpful tips, promote practical kitchen tools, and provide seasonal food inspiration for everyday home cooking. I LOVE connecting with home cooks looking to make the most of their time and ingredients.

I’m an outgoing, enthusiastic lover of food, family and nature. I was born in Germany, grew up on a prairie farm and studied Human Ecology (the study of human needs) and Education at the University of Manitoba. I have a husband, two young adults I will forever call my “kids”, a dog, two cats and a giant backyard in the Canadian Shield. Put it all together and you get ME!

Me + Food

I enjoy ALL foods in balance and moderation.

My goal is to share easy, affordable, practical cooking skills to help home cooks be more confident making everyday food from scratch. I use fresh, local, seasonal food whenever possible and am always looking for ways to help reduce food waste.

I’ve been sharing food tips and how to’s since the dawn of time via presentations, fax 😲, TV, radio, Zoom and kitchen demos. And now, social media has opened even more doors and I’m rapidly growing my community on Instagram, TikTok and YouTube with lively short form video. I’m honoured that my community trusts me and the wealth of experience and education I bring to the table as well as my friendly, practical style.
