About

Ask Aunt V – Veronica Porter, Owner of Ask Aunt V, was born and raised in Naperville, Illinois when it was still considered a small farm town.  She caught the end of an era when you grew, gathered, and prepared your own food.  It was a time that you learned from your elders, explored with your friends, and followed in the footsteps of time worn traditions. 

Veronica brings these values to modern times and shares her experiences by educating and strategizing for healthy, organic, heirloom gardening, farm to table food integrity, cooking, preservation and living life in a responsible, regenerative manner.  She is a third-generation organic farmer, chef, culinary instructor, and food educator for home and garden.  Veronica is a Licensed Chef, she holds a Master of Organic Farming, Master of Urban Farming, and she is a Master Gardener. She is a Certified Compost Ambassador and holds a Certificate for Food and Nutrition. She is a published author and a sought-after public speaker.

Veronica Porter is the recent President of the State of Illinois Farmer Veterans Coalition and a member of Homegrown by Heroes Illinois.

"My passion is to create community in all I do, from growing a garden, to preparing a meal, to educating, gathering and enjoying life's harvest."  Veronica Porter, Ask Aunt V 2014
