If you are anything like me, the thought of doing up a platter for entertaining is a bit of a drag. A bowl of chips and some Camembert on a plate just doesn’t cut it anymore, and with so many different dietary requirements these days it can all become a little overwhelming.
Enter Becky from ‘Humble Grazing’- and I mean thank god for Becky!!
‘Humble Grazing’ is an amazing local platter company that solves all your entertaining problems by providing beautiful bespoke platters that are not only delicious but use wholesome, organic and local produce and growers. All of her crackers, breads, dips and bliss balls are handmade in house (who does this?!!!) and she actually enjoys it (still gobsmacked..)- because this is her hobby you can be assured that each box is made with love, care and attention.
Becky is a local mum of two beautiful girls, Ayla and Violet, husband Reece and a dog called Gravy (best dog name I have ever heard!) They live on a small lifestyle block in Tikorangi.
Becky is a part time nurse which she says uses her brain and challenges her in a different way to Humble Grazing- this is her creative outlet and true passion. She loves to entertain and share food with her friends and family. She is passionate about colourful healthy food options and only uses locally sourced ingredients so she can support other local businesses and has spent countless hours sourcing the best suppliers in Taranaki and wider NZ.
Humble Grazing offers platters, brunches and Brie cakes which she says are becoming very popular- and we are not surprised at all! A whole wheel of cheese? Yes please!
I asked Becky what makes her tick:
‘Beautiful, colourful food. I love the final product of a platter all tied together with herbs and flowers. I love that our boxes change with the seasons because we use local growers. I think it makes the platters extra special and you know you're never going to get the same thing twice.’
Becky delivers platters to the wider Taranaki region and has just created her website where you can peruse the delicious options available and order online.
Why we love Humble and Grazing? How could we not, it’s food!! This is a local business supporting other local businesses- a strong mantra we follow here at Objects. Becky is passionate about her food, she is passionate about solving your entertaining needs, and after using her for a few of our own events we can legitimately say her platters are not only delicious but beautiful too. You can genuinely see how much love, care and passion goes into each one- the attention to detail is next level. Even her boxes are eco friendly.
So the next time your darling husband invites people over for a drinks, and doesn’t tell you until late in the game, call Becky. She’s got your back. She could probably pick up divorce papers on her way to deliver the platter- now that’s above and beyond!! We love to see people like Becky follow their passion and make a huge success of it. We LOVE Humble and Grazing!
