Beth Kirby is a well-known businesswoman and the originator of Local Milk. The news of Beth Kirby’s death has gone viral on social media as her fans and followers couldn’t believe this news.
Kirby went to Loyola University New Orleans to study philosophy and write in the low country. She had religious encounters with oysters on the half-shell swimming in Tabasco, crawfish in brown paper sacks, muffulettas from Central Grocery, and Café du Monde’s midnight beignets.
In the summers, she backpacked across Europe on a shoestring budget, while she spent most of her time in a little Dutch town eating handmade bread and Stroop waffles at a cafe called L’abri, which means “shelter” in French.
