Terri McClernon – The Food Fairy
North Carolina’s favorite personal chef
MAKING LOVE DELICIOUS ~ ALWAYS LOCAL AND SUSTAINABLE
I just love to cook! I feel positively gleeful knowing how our services can change lives if only by bringing families together at the dinner table. We offer easy and healthy meals and, in these challenging and hectic times, your pleasure is indeed our pleasure!
Maybe your family is so busy that you don’t stop for home-cooked meals. It could be you just don’t enjoying cooking or don’t cook as much as you used to, but you still want to eat well. Perhaps someone in your family has food allergies or you have other special dietary requirements such as gluten-free, heart healthy, diabetic, vegetarian, vegan, renal, weight loss or other challenging restrictive diets. Do you prefer to support local farmers, happy pastured livestock (aka free-range cattle and poultry), organic and sustainable farms and local small businesses?
We understand your dilemma, so The Food Fairy is here for you, to nourish – and nurture – by preparing personalized and wholesome meals right in your own home! We specialize in YOU and enjoy creating meals that satisfy your health and palate needs, whatever they may be!
We are ever so happy to make your purchasing wishes come true, too, at farmer’s markets and neighboring farms or groceries that support local producers of all types of food products including, your preferred local organic products, free range, and grass fed “Happy Pastured Livestock”.
We can help you in other ways, too: from catering parties, weddings, retreats or business functions, to teaching cooking or eating empowerment classes, menu and recipe consulting or corporate wellness programs. We’ll even re-organize your kitchen for you if that will simplify your life. So if you’re in the Pittsboro, Chapel Hill, Carrboro, Raleigh/Durham area (or beyond), give The Food Fairy® a call.
That’s what “The Food Fairy” is all about – making your wishes come true!

When A Prairie Home Companion came to Durham in May, 2009, The Food Fairy was selected to cater meals and snacks (hospitality) both Friday and Saturday - two breakfasts, two lunches and one dinner - for the entire cast, guests and crew. Host Garrison Keillor was moved to say, “A Prairie Home Companion never ate so well as when the Food Fairy fed us backstage at Durham in May 2009 – all fresh and light and healthy – just as we wish our show could be."
