Miraculous Meals was founded in February 2004 by Don & Tammy Rose. After a few months of testing in late 2003, Tammy discovered that there was a real need to supply quality pre-packaged meals to McPherson area residents. After a year of
successfully running this business
(originally entitled "Marvelous
Meals"), while at the same time running an established day care (The
Rose Garden), Don & Tammy
decided to go full-time in August 2005. The name was changed to Miraculous Meals and the new
facility at 1321 North Highway 81 Bypass, McPherson, KS was completed
in January 2006.From 1994-1998, Tammy obtained much of her commercial food service experience at Central Christian College. She has always loved cooking and enjoys experimenting with new recipes. She has been testing and developing freezer cooking dishes since 1991. In 1999, Tammy established and ran The Rose Garden, which was a local day care in McPherson for six years. She built the day care into a thriving business by adding new clients on a regular basis.
Tammy graduated from Central Christian College in May 1985 with an Associate in General Studies degree. She went on to complete her education at Greenville College, Greenville, IL, graduating with a Bachelor's in Music Education in May 1988.
Tammy's husband, Don,
is the co-founder of Miraculous Meals.
He graduated with
a Bachelor's degree in Technical
Education from Panhandle State
University, Goodwell, OK in December 1989. During the summer of
1990, the Roses moved back to McPherson where Tammy & Don both accepted
positions at Central Christian College. Don taught industrial education
courses until 1995. In the summer of 1995, Don completed his Master's degree in
Education/Technology at Fort Hays State University. He then changed
positions
and became the Director of Facilities Management overseeing the
grounds, buildings, and fleet maintenance. Don held that position until
December 2003. In January 2004, he left the employment of Central
Christian College and took a position with Hutchinson Community College
as Construction Trades
Trainer/Coordinator for the Kansas Association of General Contractors
in Wichita, KS.
