Native Creative Cooking Classes

Our popular native creative cooking classes ($145pp) run throughout the year. Julie is an experienced cook and she will introduce you to the fantastic native food plants in the garden as you harvest the plants to be used in the class. The schoolhouse café provides the venue for the class as you cook up a storm to share with the class for lunch which is included in the cost.  Go to a full list of Cooking Classes here
