Welcome to Grazing Goods!

I'm Leah and one of my greatest joys is creating a few delicious bites for you and yours to enjoy. We believe the best things in life often happen around a table, as we break bread, learn, listen, laugh - and at times cry as we share a taste of something memorable. After experiencing countless moments like these, I hope to bring something similar to your table.

My background and training started in Boston where I worked in catering at luxury hotels across the city. There, I learned how to create an exceptional event experience, with food, presentation and the layering of flavors. I also spent time in neighborhood kitchens with many aunties and moms as they shared their rich traditions and recipes with me. After moving to San Francisco, I spent 20 years in corporate recruiting and event planning. During that time, we enjoyed many visits with family to the Sarasota area. My family (hubs Tim and two teen girls, Amelia and Annalise) moved in 2021 and we now call Sarasota home.

The combination of these experiences has given me a passion to bring people together with some exceptional culinary creations, as we share in the abundance of food, friends and family. We truly hope that one of our selections can bring something special to your next gathering.
