WE FEED YOU LIKE FAMILY

Organic + Seasonal

We purchase directly from farmers in Prince Edward County whenever season and availability allow. This means we know exactly how the food was grown and that it has reached peak nutrition and taste.

Sustainable Protein

We use sustainably sourced animal proteins, including pasture raised beef, heritage pastured pork, certified organic poultry from Yorkshire Valley Farms, wild salmon and locally caught pickerel and perch.

No Processed Ingredients or Refined Sugars

Everything is made from scratch.

We sweeten our baked goods with Ontario maple syrup or local honey.

High Gelatin Bone Broth

36-hour slow simmered bone broth using organic chicken makes up the base of much of our cooking.

Gluten Free, Dairy-Free + Vegetarian Options

We offer a variety of gluten free, dairy-free and vegetarian options on our menu each week.

Non-GMO

Our food is strictly non-GMO. Any corn, soy or other commonly found GMO products are from certified organic sources only.

Nourishing home-cooked meals

$5 delivery flat fee on all deliveries.

Roots Kitchen (formerly Roots of Health) is owned and operated by husband and wife team, nutritionist Kerri Cooper & chef Sean MacFayden.

A self-trained cook, Kerri worked as a personal chef for families and couples in their homes throughout Toronto for over 5 years while building her holistic nutrition practice. She began offering meal delivery options to her nutrition clients as an add-on service. Cooking in her roommate’s home in Kensington market, she would gather the ingredients in the morning from the market shop keepers, prepare, cook and deliver meals to a small group of loyal customers that same evening. This slowly grew into one of the first meal delivery businesses in Toronto. Kerri left nutrition consulting for the kitchen full-time in 2013.

When Sean came on board in 2013, he quickly put his lifetime of experience and natural creativity to work helping take RK to the next level. Sean has worked in kitchens both in Toronto and London, England for over a decade and was head chef at Butchers of Distinction from 2014-2018. You can find one of his savoury pies from the butcher shop featured in Toronto Life magazine.

Over the past 10 years, business has grown organically through word of mouth. Everything is cooked in small batches, using ingredients purchased from farmers, butchers and food suppliers they know and trust.

Our mission is to deliver high quality, delicious and soulful meals, support local & organic farmers and re-connect people to one another over a shared meal.

Roots Kitchen is based in Prince Edward County and delivers to homes and businesses across Prince Edward County, Belleville and Trenton.

Roots Kitchen philosophy centers on these 4 principles

Pleasure: We want to exceed your expectations of how good prepared food can be. We handcraft our meals in small batches, using the very best ingredients and lots of fresh herbs and spices, creating absolutely delicious and inspiring meals to enjoy at home.

Nourishment: Our food is local, seasonal and organic where possible.. We use both animal and vegetable proteins; a mix of raw fermented and naturally high fiber foods, and a mineral-rich high gelatin bone broth as a base of our sauces, soups, stews and curries.

Sustainability: It’s important to us to have as much of an environmentally responsible business as possible and to continually increase our use and promotion of sustainable food, product and packaging. We support local organic farmers and local fisherfolk, source local organic products whenever possible and use re-usable, recyclable or compostable materials both in our kitchen and for our meal delivery. Food packaging and recyclables are complicated in food industry today. We’re always on the hunt for better packaging options to be a better example of an environmentally conscious business.

Education: We love educating our customers on where their food comes from, how a local and diverse diet can nourish their bodies and why supporting farmers is important to a heathy future for us and our planet. We want you to be as excited and informed about food as we are! Follow us on Instagram @rootskitchen.ca to learn more.
