Description
Chef-Farmer Matthew Raiford is sixth generation in his family to run Gilliard Farms in Brunswick, GA, first purchased by his great-great-great grandfather Jupiter Gilliard more than 150 years ago. Raiford's ancestry is Gullah Geechee, descendants of slaves brought to America to work the plantations. Gullah Geechee food is an essential cuisine of American history as eloquently conveyed in Raiford's cookbook, “Bress N Nyam” (Gullah Geechee for “bless and eat”).
