After graduating from
the Culinary Institute of America in 2006, Emma
Hearst started making a splash in the food world. She opened
acclaimed Manhattan eatery Sorella in 2008 with a classmate; was
the youngest-ever Iron Chef America
competitor at 24 in 2011; and earned a James Beard Award nom in 2012 for Rising Star Chef of the Year. In 2016, Hearst traded fast-
paced New York City for a pastoral life in Albany County where she runs Forts Ferry Farm with her husband (and crafts pantry goods for her recently opened store in Hudson, Farm Shoppe). Her new cookbook, Flavors from the Farm, is packed with over 100 homegrown recipes starring seasonal produce.
