Culinary Adventurist and Social Media & Marketing Maven Wendy Perry is a native of Zebulon, North Carolina, where she still resides. Since managing to secure her BS degree in Home Economics Education from East Carolina University in the last century, she has taken many journeys in the culinary and related worlds. Over the past few decades, she has cultivated relationships throughout North Carolina
and her passion for helping small farmers and those who have created wondermous food products here in North Carolina has sprouted and blossomed into this, SowcialMedia.com ...sowing seeds of growth for her clients hither and yon! Wendy obtained her Social Media Marketing Management Certificate in 2014 from NC State University. Marketing Home Economist Wendy was house chef, food stylist and recipe developer for several years for Our State Magazine. You will find her styling and recipes scattered throughout publications during her 5 year tenure there... all featuring North Carolina edibles. Since 2017, she has done the same at Carolina Country Magazine, the largest subscription publication in North Carolina. Wendy's recipes, photos and sometimes writings appear monthly! In addition to her social media services, Home Economist Wendy loves creating recipes with North Carolina made products and farm goodies... showcasing new ways for their customers to enjoy them. When you hire Wendy, not only can she create your recipes, but she can also style and photograph them... so you won't need to hire several folks to showcase your foods... be it those created with what you produce, but for those of you with restaurants too! Wendy hopes you will share her page and invite others over to share her love for North Carolina Goodness...
