From farm to table - explore the full journey of food through cooking, foraging, baking, and global flavors in a hands-on culinary adventure!

Culinary Craft is for those who love being in the kitchen and want to master the art of cooking. Whether you're a beginner or an aspiring chef, you'll explore the full journey of food - from nature to plate - through hands-on experience.

 

You'll cook in our MasterChef-style kitchen, make sourdough from scratch, forage, fish, and harvest local ingredients. Learn fermentation, pickling, butchery, and how to craft authentic Neapolitan pizza. We'll dive into world cuisine, street food, traditional dishes, and even student-budget cooking. Want to grow your own food? We'll cover sprouting and window farming too!

 

Beyond cooking, we embrace food sustainability, including dumpster diving as a real student survival skill. With two exciting trips and a mix of practical and theoretical learning, you'll gain skills for life - whether that means impressing guests with homemade sourdough, cooking a perfect steak, or proving that vegetarian food is truly delicious.

 

By the end of the year, you'll leave with new culinary skills, a well-cared-for sourdough starter, and a deep love for great flavors!
