Jerrmy Gawthrop was raised in Bella Vista, Arkansas, and a Bentonville High School graduate, and later attended the University of Arkansas before settling in Fayetteville. In 2006, Jerrmy and longtime collaborator Clayton Suttle opened Greenhouse Grille in South Fayetteville. For over a decade the small establishment’s farm-to-table and sustainable mantra earned it national press attention and awards. In 2014 Wood Stone Pizza was opened, followed by a second location in North Fayetteville. During this time (2010) Jerrmy teamed up with Bryan and Bernice Hembree as a co-producer the Fayetteville Roots Festival. The annual festival has become a musical and culinary highlight for the NWA cultural scene.
