Gather & Feast

For Ashley of Gather and Feast, the people surrounding the dining table are just as important as the fresh produce and foliage adorning it. It’s hard to believe that she only recently started sharing her love for “beautiful, yet low fuss” gatherings, and in the six months since she started her blog, she’s also launched a free recipe […]
