Erin Gomez

Erin Gomez is a passionate farmer and former fine dining chef, bringing over a decade of experience from esteemed farm-to-table restaurants in Austin, San Francisco, Boulder, and San Antonio. After participating in Urban American Farmer’s inaugural “Farm School for Chefs,” Erin felt a calling to return to her roots and embrace the art of farming.

Since then, she has worked on various farms in the greater Austin area and embarked on her own farming journey in Lockhart. In 2022, Erin joined the Central Texas Young Farmers Coalition, a nonprofit dedicated to supporting young and beginning farmers, where she currently serves as Vice President.

Her farm is in the process of forming a cooperative with fellow farmers from Better Days Gardens and Austin Worm Lab, fostering a community of like-minded agriculturalists. Erin’s dedication to food and her community is evident in her work, and she is thrilled to be part of Field Guide Fest ’25, sharing her passion for sustainable agriculture and culinary excellence.

Join Erin as she celebrates the intersection of farming and fine dining, bringing fresh, local flavors to the forefront of our community!
