I am Wife to Pa Hubbard and Mother to two beautiful girls, ages 5 and 3. I am also a medical school professor, which ultimately allowed me to identify my family’s gluten intolerance issues, but has also influenced my interests in the food-body connection in numerous other ways. Prior to earning a Ph.D. in plant pathology from the University of Kentucky College of Agriculture, I taught high school biology and was a seasonal park naturalist for many years. My experiences in medicine, agriculture, natural history, and teaching have all converged into the gardening and gluten-free living blog, Mother of a Hubbard. I hope you enjoy it!

The information you receive here is FREE -- I'm the one paying to host and manage this website. Help me support it and the work that I do to promote home gardening and agriculture in eastern Kentucky (and in your own part of the world). You can do that by clicking on affiliate links embedded in my posts -- it costs NOTHING to you, but I will receive a teeny-tiny bit of compensation as advertising fees. Thank you!
