She started her career at Common Ground, New Haven’s celebrated high school, urban farm, and environmental education center. As Meg’s career grew, she prioritized using farm fresh ingredients in her menus. She went on to become a chef at several well-regarded restaurants in New Haven and Fairfield County. Meg started The Farm Belly to continue her passion of feeding people fresh and delicious food grown by Connecticut’s hard-working farmers.
