OUR OFFERINGS
Offering healthier alternatives and education to promote healthy eating as well as make it more fun and innovative for participants!
Educating the dining community on sustainable practices, local support practices, and diverting waste that can be reclaimed.
Class styles are designed to provide participants with an immersive culinary and nutritional experience that positively impacts food choices, kitchen confidence, and overall wellness.
Our private teaching kitchen opportunities are intended to give small, private groups a chance to learn in the demonstration kitchen together. View our private options detailed at the bottom of the page!
Due to the limited registration space and resources used to supply each Demo Kitchen event, we ask that if you can no longer attend to cancel your reservation in order to open your spot to another individual within 12 hours of the scheduled event.
If you do not cancel your reservation spot and do not show up to the event, you will be charged a "no-show" fee ($15) to cover the cost of supplies.
Please be courteous of your fellow 49ers to allow others to attend!
