  • Our caterers canceled on us 3 weeks prior to our wedding, and Johanna & Jed completely came to our rescue! They created a fantastic menu for our wedding and pulled off the catering for our event on super short notice. The presentation of the food was lovely, artistic, and professional, and the dishes themselves were so unique and delicious while wholesome and healthy. Our wedding guests were so impressed and we can't recommend Gather Around Nutrition highly enough! Johanna & Jed were a pleasure to work with.

    Trinity ─ Santa Rosa, CA

  • I cannot recommend Gather Around Nutrition more! We hired Jed and Johanna for a private dining experience for a bachelorette party and they did an incredible job! They not only used locally sourced food and produce, but also created a truly unforgettable experience for us, complete with a wine pairing with dinner and gorgeous table service! If you’re thinking of hiring them, you absolutely should!

    Abby ─ Portland, OR

  • These people are mystical masters of the culinary arts. I have never experienced a better farm-to-table sustainably sourced catering experience. They put so much care into every single meal they create. They accommodated our group's extreme dietary restrictions that varied each week (including gluten free, dairy free, vegan, nightshade free folks) carefully making sure everyone's nutritional needs were met. Each meal was aesthetically gorgeous, delicious, lovingly designed and crafted using local seasonal ingredients usually sourced from Black, Latinx and Indigenous owned farms or sustainable Indigenous fishing operations. Jed and Johanna are also a pleasure to be around. I recommend hiring Gather Around Nutrition wholeheartedly, especially for people hosting retreats.

  • If you’re reading this, don’t hesitate and hire them immediately! Our guests said they thought it might be some of the best food they’ve ever had in their lives. Johanna is so sweet and obviously passionate about what she does. I’d give more stars if I could.

    Jacquelyn — Portland, OR

  • Jed & Johanna catered our wedding with grazing boards and a buffet-style dinner! The food was AMAZING and such a highlight of the evening. Everyone keeps talking about it :) we love that we were able to incorporate local and seasonal produce AND work with a small business all in one. They are so talented, and we especially loved the level of food education and encouragement to try new produce they provided to guests during the event. Thank you thank you!
