Juniper Green
5-Course Farm-to-Fork Tasting Event
Tucked away on the grounds of the Old School Farm campus, in the beautiful Bells Bend area of Nashville, Juniper Green, which opened this past May, is quite an experience. Diners enter the historic brick schoolhouse, with its expansive open air pavilion framed by gardens and a working organic farm, to discover the exceptional cooking of Owner/Executive Chef Molly Martin, who trained with world-renowned chef and cookbook author Yotam Ottolenghi. Born and raised in coastal Mississippi, Chef Martin migrated to Nashville after college to pursue music, but her love of food led her into the restaurant world. She launched the opening culinary programs at Salt + Vine and Bar Luca and then started Juniper Green in 2017 as a catering business. She became known for inventive food made with the freshest local ingredients in dishes like charred broccoli with aged white cheddar, apples, walnuts, and cider vinaigrette or green quinoa with herb and pepita pesto and caramelized onions. We’re excited to pay a visit to Juniper Green, where Chef Martin’s will share her ideas and philosophy about food and take your questions.

Chef/Owner
A coastal Mississippi native, Chef Martin first moved to Tennessee to attend college at Sewanee. She then migrated to Nashville to pursue music, but her creative energy and love of people drew her back into hospitality. From there, she relocated to London to stage under legendary chef & cookbook author, Yotam Ottolenghi, before returning to Music City to open Juniper Green first as a catering company in 2017 and now as a brick-and-morter.
