Bethany Wright

Bethany lives in Ohio with her wonderful husband, delightful 8-year-old daughter, and adorable 5-year-old son. When she’s not busy making a disaster in the kitchen, she enjoys taking all-day cycling excursions with her family and reading books. She comes from a long line of cooks, including ancestors who were chefs to German nobility. Despite her chops in the kitchen, she is completely unskilled at vegetable gardening. (Her consolation is knowing that in a zombie apocalypse, her role would be the town baker and not farmer.) A long-time KS reader, Bethany is thankful for Kitchen Stewardship's baby-steps and Monday Missions that have completely transformed her family’s life. Bethany blogs regularly at WoodhavenPl.comRead Bethany's bio.
