Chef Melissa Rebholz grew up in Buffalo, NY and attended The Natural Gourmet Institute in New York City for culinary school. While attending school she worked for Grow NYC, managing 3 farmers markets in Manhattan. Her love of cooking and growing food led her to spend the following 10 years working on organic farms all around the county from wine country in Sonoma to Southern Appalachia. She moved to Wheeling, West Virginia in 2019 to open the kitchen at the Public Market for Grow Ohio Valley. In 2021 she went out on her own to start Midge’s Kitchen which offers a weekly meal pickup, catering services and operates a seasonal hot dog cart. She remains passionate about using locally grown and produced ingredients and still grows a large garden each year at home.
