Meet the Repurposed Space

Wonder Root Farm

Every piece of furniture, art, landscape and programming has been chosen to create in each guest of Miss J’s Wonder Root Farm a sense of wonder and awe….even if for just a second of a chuckle, surprise or question- practical, scientific, psychological or spiritual.

Encourages each guest to enjoy, have fun, relax, walk, talk, explore the individual sense of wonder  still alive and well in each one of us…only to be noticed and played louder.

A Louisiana native, she possesses that enviable ability to make anyone feel at ease with her southern warmth and graceful charm. A successful psychotherapist in the early days, Jeanie also loved to entertain. One day when a close friend asked if she’d cater a party, Jeanie answered with a resounding,“Yes!” This love of food, friends and fun soon translated into a successful catering company unlike any other in the Boston area. Twenty years later, this self-taught cook is still turning ordinary events into extraordinary affairs – bringing her wisdom and whimsical style to all her projects.

Today Jeanie divides her time between Miss Jeanies Catering , the WishDish, and Wonder Root Farm. So when she’s not meeting with clients, cooking up a storm or seeking out new flavors, fabrics, and flowers, this author of MAKING FOOD WORK (2013), mother of two, wife of one, relaxes by dreaming up the next great educational initiative at her non-profit Wonder Root Farm Lab.
