A passion for real food
Louisa's passion for food began when she started baking with her grandmother at just five years old. Since then, she has become an accomplished chef, training in France in cheesemaking, butchery, charcuterie, preserving, fermenting, and most recently she qualified as a chef patissière.
Louisa's idea to create the Farm to Table Kitchen came from her desire to marry her principles of using homegrown food with her skills as a chef. Her catering business has evolved since arriving in France 14 years ago. Her farm Little Black Pig grows an array of fruits and vegetables - including edible flowers! She also raises chickens and the famous porc noir pigs, local to the area which are renowned for their delicious meat.
She is committed to ensuring ingredients are sourced locally, so will always try to find delicious alternatives to any ingredients which can only be found outside of France.
We had the most incredible wedding at Château de Arlens in May 2024, and one of the standout highlights was the exceptional catering by Louisa Hallewell and her team at Farm 2 Table Kitchen. From start to finish, Louisa brought an incredible level of passion, creativity, and attention to detail that made our wedding feast truly unforgettable. Every dish was crafted with the freshest, locally sourced ingredients, bursting with flavor and beautifully presented. Our guests are still raving about the incredible food, from the delicious canapés to the perfectly executed main courses and indulgent desserts. The menu was a perfect reflection of our love for quality, seasonal ingredients and thoughtful cooking. Beyond the food, Louisa and her team provided seamless service with warmth and professionalism, ensuring that everything ran smoothly. She took the time to understand our vision and executed it flawlessly. If you're looking for a caterer who combines incredible food with an impeccable experience, we couldn't recommend Farm 2 Table Kitchen highly enough. Thank you, Louisa, for making our wedding meal so special – it was everything we dreamed of and more! Bertie & Stefanie Château de Arlens – May 2024
I am writing to say how delicious all your dishes were and how much everyone enjoyed them.

I am so pleased to have been put in contact with you.
A quick note to thank you very much for the delicious Beef Daube etc you delivered to us at chateau Labarthe for the first night of our holiday - it was the perfect dish to have and much enjoyed by all!
Thoroughly and highly recommend Louisa Hallewell’s culinary skills. Her cooking tastes fantastic and looks amazing.

Just wanted to say a really big thank you once again for the whole weekend – it was everything we had imagined and planned for and so much more, so thank you for helping us put it all together. Obviously, we had an absolutely amazing time, with lots of special and happy memories but we also received so much positive feedback about the food, planning, staff, look / feel / set-up etc. of the whole thing, which really did make it such an amazing few days and I know every single person had a great time. Can’t say thank you enough!
