Martha made 3 different meals for us while we were on vacation with my in laws. 3 different families - about 15 people and we wanted a few days where we didn’t have to think about dinner. Martha came through - she dropped off complete dinners in the morning and we reheated for dinner. Her food was delicious and she was very accommodating. I really enjoyed working with her. She used fresh ingredients and really cared about us! I will plan to use her on any vacation I take in the North Woods!
Martha Kelly Kitchen of the Woods•Oct 24, 2026Kerry, thank you so much! It was a pleasure cooking for your family and giving you a few nights off from the “what’s for dinner?” committee! 😂 Vacations should mean more time together and less time in the kitchen. Knowing you felt cared for means just as much to me as knowing you enjoyed the food. I’d love to feed you all again on your next Northwoods getaway! ❤️

Martha was wonderful to work with for my wedding! She was so patient and offered helpful guidance through multiple rounds of menu changes, and most importantly, the food was delicious and abundant! Our guests raved about how great the food was and how well-fed they were. Large weddings can be tough, but Martha nailed it. Everything tasted fresh, was cooked well, and both tasted and looked lovely!

Working through the menu together was all part of making it feel right for you, and hearing that your guests loved the food and felt well fed makes me so happy! Thank you for trusting us with such a special day and taking the time to share these kind words. They mean so much to our family business. Wishing you and Alex a lifetime of love, laughter, and delicious meals together! 🥂💕
