Fresh Ideas for an Outdoor Space
Ask Matt Clervi his favorite thing to cook in his home’s outdoor space and you might be surprised by his answer: baked chicken with roasted vegetables. For the classically trained French chef and chief executive officer at Fresh Ideas, it’s the perfect menu to serve guests at his home’s outdoor pavilion.
Matt and his wife, Kathy, chose a lot in the Copperstone subdivision in south Columbia seven years ago to build their custom home. “We have just under three acres, so we can build our raised gardens and have woods to walk in,” Matt says. “It was a beautiful lot, so it was easy to envision a beautiful home and still be close to amenities and the trail. Kathy wanted to be in the city but not live in the city.”
