The journeys and the stories.

My name is Megan.

I’m a writer, researcher, and storyteller with a passion for uncovering the past—one recipe, tradition, and family story at a time.

Folk & Fare was born from my love of genealogy, foodways, and the rich, often unspoken histories passed down through generations. My background as a journalist and my curiosity about folk traditions—both old and new—fuel my work here.

This space is where I dig into the foodways of my ancestors, explore folklore and traditions, and document the way history shapes what we eat and how we gather today. Expect research, recipes, personal storytelling, and a dash of local lore—because every meal and every family has a story worth telling.

Thanks for being here. Pull up a chair, and let’s explore the stories we carry together.
