About Martha's Kitchen

Many years ago when I was doing some mass baking, a friend walked in and said ‘Gosh, this looks like Martha’s kitchen!’. Well, I suppose I’ve always been a bit of a Martha… I like to be making, doing, creating, concocting… Now, Martha’s Kitchen has taken on a new lease of life. Much of what I make is from what you might call ‘surplus stock’. An over-crop of fruit or vegetables from an allotment, or from the market at the end of the day… bottles and jars that would otherwise be thrown away… odds and ends of ribbons and card… old picture frames… special offers... And why? I hate waste... I raise awareness… I support my youth work as well as making a small living … And I thoroughly enjoy doing it.
