Northwest Chef Chat is a labor of love. We are dedicated to preserving the culinary history of the Pacific Northwest and sharing it with the world. Your support helps us continue to produce high-quality content and keep the podcast ad-free.
Help us safeguard the region's unique food culture by collecting and preserving historical documents, photographs, recipes, and oral histories from chefs, restaurants, and communities. These archives ensure that the stories and achievements of Northwest culinary pioneers become a lasting part of our collective memory.
Your donations accelerate the digitization of rare and valuable culinary materials, making them accessible to researchers, chefs, and food lovers everywhere. By supporting this work, you help us bring Northwest food history online—preserving it for future generations and making it available to a global audience.
We believe in nurturing the next generation of culinary talent. Donations fund scholarships that give aspiring chefs and culinary students the opportunity to appear on "My Own Cooking Show," gaining valuable exposure, experience, and mentorship as they launch their culinary careers.
Every donation, large or small, makes a difference. Together, we can honor the past, inspire the present, and shape the future of Northwest cuisine. Thank you for being part of this delicious journey!
