Behind every board is a genuine love for bringing people together.

The Grateful Table Company was founded by Marilyn Talley, whose love of hospitality has been shaped by a lifetime of gathering around the table with family and friends.

Marilyn believes that food is a universal language — one that crosses cultures, generations, and traditions.

While the foods we share may look different, the joy of welcoming others, sharing a meal, and creating lasting memories is something we all understand.

Marilyn is also the writer behind Room-to-Breathe, a personal blog where she reflects on faith, gratitude, everyday life, and finding grace in ordinary moments. Although the blog and The Grateful Table Company are separate endeavors, they are rooted in the same values: hospitality, gratitude, meaningful connection, and serving others with care.

It is our hope that every board we create becomes more than a meal. We hope it becomes part of a conversation, a memory, and a meaningful moment shared around the table.
