There they are!

Haley Rae and Scott, the dynamic duo behind The Foxy Chef, first met at a bustling restaurant where they quickly bonded over their mutual love of dogs. Haley, a chef and bartender, and Scott, an expert beer brewer, decided to combine their passions and extensive experience in the food and beverage industry to start The Foxy Chef. This innovative business focuses on food and drink education, offering fun and engaging classes for everyone. Their passion for veganism and sustainability drives them to create delicious, eco-friendly culinary experiences. Inspired daily by their beloved dogs, Haley and Scott infuse their love of life and laughter into every culinary and brewing adventure they share.

Their dream is to one day own their own restaurant, where they can brew their own beer.
