We were founded in 1985 by Seattle Sutton, a registered nurse who worked in her husband’s Marseilles, Illinois, medical practice for 22 years. Looking for ways to help Dr. Sutton’s patients learn how to eat properly to battle health issues and recover from illness, the idea for Seattle Sutton’s Healthy Eating – nutritious, pre-prepared meals delivered directly to the home – was born. Seattle grew up in Gackle, North Dakota and has always had a keen interest in healthy eating and wellness. Seattle, and the town of Seattle Washington, were both named after the Native American Chief Seattle (Seathl), an elder of the Duwamish and Suquamish tribes. Seattle Sutton’s grandfather earned the privilege to name his granddaughter and chose this unique first name.
