This is a delightful and eye-opening class for kids that reimagines the way we think about vegetables. In this course, you'll embark on a culinary adventure to discover the natural sweetness and versatility hidden within a wide array of vegetables. Learn how to transform ordinary vegetables into extraordinary, mouthwatering dishes that even the pickiest eaters will love. With a hands-on cooking demonstration, innovative recipes, and expert guidance, you'll unlock the secrets to making vegetables the star of your plate. Join us in this journey to embrace the sweetness and endless possibilities of veggies for a healthier, tastier lifestyle.

For families and children ages 7+. We recommend grown ups stay with their little ones.
