Mee Tracy McCormick

My name is Mee McCormick and I live on a working cattle ranch and organic farm 46 miles west of Nashville, TN. I’m a chef, a momma & a wife. I run the Pinewood Kitchen & Mercantile an old 1920’s General Store & gas station that I turned into a real food restaurant a true farm to table experience as we grow and raise the product we serve. I wasn’t always this person - in fact I was the worst cook in the world.

After many years of suffering debilitating Autoimmune Disease (I have Rheumatoid Arthritis, Crohn’s, Hashimoto, Celiac, Psoriasis and severe food allergies) I found my way up off the floor and into the kitchen. I then attended a professional culinary program in Los Angeles where I learned to take American & French Classic recipes and make them better for us. For sure the belief that what happens to us also happens for us is proven - as a result of my struggles I now serve incredible southern food with a wellness twist and it’s inclusive as I am sure to create gorgeous gluten free, vegan, paleo and keto favorites. I believe we all have our own individual food paths to wellness and my goal is to inspire you to find your own.
