ReAL food in the modern world - for the people and the planet.

Let Rooted food guide you on...

  • Creativity

    Firmly grounded in tradition and taste, with attention paid to the modern landscape in inventive new ways. Biodiverse, wild, fermented. Bringing overlooked and underloved foods to the forefront.

  • Clarity

    Current nutrition and sustainability recommendations clearly communicated. Learn what changes truly make an impact, and how to transition your organization to a healthier future with longstanding nutrition wisdom and practices.

  • Culture

    Traditional foodways across the globe are healthier and more sustainable than the Standard American Diet (it’s SAD). Celebrate our differences, embrace our similarities - connect with your food history and rekindle the magic.

“THE ENVIRONMENTAL CHALLENGES THAT WE CURRENTLY FACE REQUIRE AN INTERDISCIPLINARY ‘UNICORN’, SOMEONE WITH NUTRITION, CULINARY, ACADEMIC, AND PRACTICAL SKILLS - I BELIEVE KRISTEN IS ONE OF THESE UNIQUE PEOPLE READY TO TACKLE THESE ISSUES.”

— David Eisenberg, MD, Director of Culinary Nutrition at the Harvard T.H. Chan School of Public Health
