About Kindred Cooking Co.

Hey there! I'm Lucy, and Kindred Cooking Co. is my love letter to busy families who still want to gather around good food. Based here in the beautiful Byron Hinterland, I cook every meal like I'm feeding my own loved ones – because honestly, that's exactly how I think about it.

Our Story

You know that feeling when you want to cook something amazing for dinner, but life has other plans? Yeah, me too. That's exactly why Kindred Cooking Co. exists. I started this little venture with one simple belief: everyone deserves to come home to a delicious, nourishing meal – even on those days when "cooking from scratch" feels impossible.

Locally Loved, Seasonally Inspired

I'm pretty obsessed with our incredible local farmers and producers here in the Northern Rivers. When I'm sourcing ingredients, I'm looking for the good stuff – organic and spray-free whenever possible, always fresh, always bursting with flavour. It's my way of supporting our amazing community while making sure every bite tells the story of our beautiful region.

Made with Love (and No Shortcuts)

Every single meal is crafted in small batches in my kitchen, using traditional cooking methods that even my Italian mother in law would approve of. You won't find any processed meats, artificial nasties, or anything I wouldn't happily serve at my own dinner table. Just real food, generous portions, and the kind of care that makes a house feel like home.

Ready When Life Gets Real

Our frozen meals are like having a fairy godmother in your freezer – they lock in all the nutrients and flavours at their absolute peak, then wait patiently until you need them. Whether it's a chaotic Tuesday night or a cozy Sunday solo dinner, these meals are here to wrap you in comfort without the fuss, waste, or 3am panic about what's for dinner tomorrow.

We deliver in and around the northern rivers, from Lismore to Ocean Shores every Friday, bringing top-quality comfort food straight from my kitchen to your door. 

At Kindred Cooking Co., we're not just making meals – we're creating those precious moments when everyone gathers, phones go down, and the day finally feels complete. One delicious bite at a time.
