Yesterday I traveled down to York, ME and Stonewall Kitchen for Blog Better Boston’s Food Summit. This was a great event specifically for food bloggers. It was a small event, with only 24 blogger present. Everyone from food lifestyle blogs, cooking, and restaurant reviewers were present.
Typically, these conferences are usually far from home for me so I was very excited to have a chance to meet up with some local bloggers. Besides general networking, the food summit held conferences on food styling and photography, restaurant reviews, photo editing, and recipe development. These sessions were fabulous on their own, but add in a tour of Stonewall Kitchen’s factory and offices, photo studio, break sessions sponsored by Au Bon Pain, Wyman’s, and Stonewall Kitchen and a fabulous lunch prepared by Patty Roche and Scott Jones and you have a foodies dream!
Oh, did I mention the amazing swag bags that were given out and the chance to win a few prizes on top of that? It was a good day! If you have any interest in learning more about blogging, food photography, trying to get further in your blogging, etc. you really should check out some food conferences. While national ones are fun, local ones provide a great opportunity to learn so much and create some amazing opportunities for yourself and your blog.
I promised myself to enjoy the day so I only carried my camera phone, but you can still get an idea of the fun! Thanks so much to Blog Better Boston, Stonewall Kitchen, WayFair and the rest of the sponsors for a wonderful day! I look forward to working with you and the other bloggers I met in the future!

Your photos don’t too shabby either! Maybe you should have taught the food photography class. Sounds like we missed out on a great pop to network among food bloggers. Where did you see this advertised?
