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.
It was fantastic working with Louisa and her team on the catering for our wedding day. She provided us with lots of options to choose from (mostly produce sourced from her own farm) and she was even happy to try a new dish out for us. We really enjoyed building the menu together and sampling her charcuterie was a real highlight! Before the wedding the communication was excellent and she visited the location multiple times to ensure that we could make the most of the space. On the day the food was delicious and Louisa's team was both friendly and efficient. The incredible selection of French tarts is something our guests will remember for a long time!
Louisa created a dessert treasure trove of stunning petit four and I am still dreaming about our gorgeous wedding cake with a ribbon of raspberry that Louisa topped with our signature passionflower vine.
Thoroughly and highly recommend Louisa Hallewell’s culinary skills. Her cooking tastes fantastic and looks amazing. I am truly confident that Louisa is sure to do well, so my suggestion would be not to hesitate, just get in touch, chat your needs and hopes through with her and confirm your booking as speedily as possible!
Just wanted to say a big thank you for the lovely meal you cooked us last night. It was amazing and a night we will remember for a very long time. We will be recommending you in the visitor book here and leaving your card out . Best wishes, Gill, Jo and crew
16 friends from around the world met in the Gers for a birthday celebration, France profond. We sought an authentic Gascon celebratory supper and were introduced to Louisa Our pre planning and communications were easy and succinct, and on the day Louisa arrived. Our guests were treated to, indeed, the most authentic, tasteful, beautifully presented and memorable supper. With many thanks and best wishes, Sally Worthington, Johannesburg RSA

My Farm to Table Kitchen aims to provide the best possible ingredients for your catering needs.
I do this by growing the ingredients on my organic farm and anything I cannot produce myself I source from a network of local independent suppliers.
I am passionate about preparing food with love, care and respect, and ultimately providing wonderful memorable experiences for my clients
