My Story
We moved to Williamstown when my first child was just two years old—that was over twenty years ago. Since then, I’ve fallen in love with this incredible place. With its natural beauty and close-knit community, Williamstown is a place where people truly value the simple joys in life—like sharing a great meal with good friends and family.
As my kids grew older, we moved away for a while to New York City, where my love of cooking led me to the Institute of Culinary Education, a culinary degree and an internship with Martha Stewart. I then worked as a personal chef in Manhattan. Those experiences shaped my approach to food: thoughtful, flavorful, and always meant to be enjoyed together.
Now back in the Berkshires, I’m excited to bring that experience to Joan Jones Homemade. My goal is simple: to prepare thoughtful, delicious meals that bring people together—whether it’s dinner on a busy weeknight, a special gathering with friends, or the beginning of a weekend in the Berkshires.
