Minneapolis-St. Paul and Upper Midwest Food Magazine // Feasting on the Bounty of the Upper Midwest
Hannah Rogal grew up in Iowa in a house where freshly baked bread was the norm, and summer vegetables were just steps away in the backyard garden. After a stint in Massachusetts for college, she found herself in Minneapolis where she spent a couple years in fundraising before jumping fully into the food world. Now she spends her days nurturing her sourdough starter, training for half marathons, and perfecting her homemade ice cream. In the early morning hours, she works as a pastry cook.
