Making Good is the podcast of Church Alley Cafe & Grocery. Located in New Orleans, LA Church Alley opened in 2013 serving delicious locally roasted coffee and homemade pastries and lunch. During 2020 we expanded our offerings by partnering with over a dozen local small businesses who were also looking for new ways to stay in business. We met so many amazing people doing good work and we just couldn’t keep the conversations to ourselves! Making Good is dedicated to the good work of those making groceries along the Gulf Coast.

In 2010, Kate came into the picture when she met Grant at Laughing Buddha (buying red wigglers for her apartment compost bin!). Kate grew up in a rural area south of Madison, Wisconsin, surrounded by conventional corn and soy fields. Her parents always grew a large vegetable garden and composted and as a teenager she spent summers working at a local garden center, but she never imagined going into gardening or agriculture professionally. She studied journalism at the University of Missouri and held several reporting jobs prior to serving in AmeriCorps and moving to New Orleans in 2009. She worked as a fundraiser in nonprofits and universities for several years before joining Grant at Laughing Buddha and their farm, Local Cooling Farms, in 2016.
