Hi, My Name is Emma!
Thanks for stopping by my cozy corner of the internet and welcome to Nurtured Homes❤️
I am a very private person, and instead of showing a fake photo of myself, here are some things from my life I would like to share with you (it’s a deeply personal choice, but I want to stay true to myself!).
This is my kitchen☺️ Every recipe you see on Nurtured Homes has been (and will always be) cooked by me in this little cozy kitchen. It’s small, kind of a mess (sorry, lol), but I love it!

This is my cat (well, one of them at least). His name is Chonk (yes really), and is one of my favorite kitchen helpers. He is not even that ‘thick’, but I just love the name and it stuck, haha.

This is my garden, some homegrown veggies/fruit and my hands (you’ll be seeing a lot of all three😆). It has been a very hard decision to decide wether to show my face in photos, videos, etc, or to follow my heart and do what I am most comfortable with, and I ultimately chose to what felt right to me.


I love to cook and eat (obviously), gardening, spending time with my family (both human and fur children) and most of all, enjoying what nature and each season has to offer.
If it’s your first time visiting Nurtured Homes, welcome!
If you’re a repeat visitor, nice to see you again and thanks for continuing to make our recipes, support the site and hope you’re enjoying everything Nurtured Homes has to offer :)
What Nurtured Homes is All About
The reason I created Nurtured Homes is purely driven by my love of food, gardening, and using fresh ingredients.
I like to explore tasty (but simple) recipes that anyone can make using the best foods that nature has to offer. I tend to cook (and eat) with the seasons with garden/orchard/field/farm fresh ingredients like blueberries, tomatoes, lavender, strawberries, cucumbers, etc (it’s incredibly how much a difference using fresh ingredients can make for any recipe).
I am not a food snob, I promise! I love Biscoff, Oreos and Cool Whip (well, some of the time, lol, depending on how it’s used).
I will never judge anyone for using any ingredient, wether it’s from your local grocery store, in the ‘junk food’ aisle or wrapped in plastic.
With that being said, I just love cooking (period) and creating delicious recipes that anyone, with any cooking skill, can make at home.
I hope you see, feel and taste the love in all of my recipes and can’t wait to keep sharing all of my new recipes and cookbooks with you!
