Crafts and Life

Some baby-faced chefs, fresh out of cooking school, are looking to open a restaurant in Granford. They plan on using local foods-great news for city girl banker-turned orchard owner Meg Corey. Yet when one of the chefs is found dead, face-down in a farmer's pig wallow, plans come to a screeching halt. And Meg soon discovers they may have a locally grown killer on their hands.

Meg's friend Lauren asks Meg what are the prospects for a young trio wanting to open a restaurant (the Head Chef and the front of house/admin are married with a close friend being the third member and the sous chef).  Meg puts them in contact with the local Realtor and before long they have secured a house and with Seth's help are turning it into a restaurant where they plan to serve as much local food as possible.  The bump in the road occurs when the sous chef is found dead in a pig wallow and it appears that again it appears to be someone local who has done the deed.  Meg ends up balancing her orchard work (the first fruits are getting close to picking so that needs organizing), the local bees seem to be dying off and Nicky and Brian need her help sorting out suppliers!
