Cultivating Flavor, Honoring Heritage
Chef Mary Sallah is more than a chef—she is a culinary expert, weaving together the rich tapestry of her Lebanese heritage with the living, breathing canvas of Rootin Tootin Acres. Her story is one of deep connection: to family, to land, and to the transformative power of food. Born into a lineage of chefs and restaurateurs, Mary's culinary passion is inscribed in her DNA. Here at Rootin Tootin Acres, Mary is both creator and co-creator, meticulously designing our crop list to bring her vision of flavor to life. Mary doesn't just cook—she collaborates directly with our farm team, walking the fields, selecting seeds, and participating in harvests. Every ingredient tells a story, and Mary is its most passionate narrator. Her approach transforms our farm into a living kitchen, where Lebanese culinary traditions meet the fresh, vibrant produce of our local soil.
Prepare to be transported—not just by flavor, but by a culinary journey that honors tradition, land, and the art of feeding people.
