Cooking Classes

The Natural Kitchen: the Art of Food

 

For me, food is both a daily celebration of life and a creative expression. As a lover of the natural world, food is intimately tied to my gardens and the seasons of the year. I love the way that cooking involves all the senses, adding to both its possibilities and its pleasure as an art form.

In the natural kitchen series my goal is to help people make more beautiful, inviting workspaces to encourage their own enjoyment and creativity in preparing food.

Central to all of this is the focus on health. We will explore the world of natural foods as we cook, using local, seasonal, and organic products. The quality of the ingredients, their purity and freshness, have everything to do with both flavor and health benefits.

Cooking is a joy I want to share, hopefully inspiring others to explore it with more confidence and excitement. Creativity is life enhancing It can be called forth especially in the spirit of play. It is my intention that we should have great fun learning to make wonderful food together.

About Eve

A lifelong gardener, artist, and cook, Eve’s gardens, floral designs, and textile art have been highly published in many magazines, books and TV. She is currently working on a book titled, The Natural Kitchen.

From Eve

Since early childhood gardening, art, and cooking have been my passions. They have interwoven in different ways throughout my life. For almost 40 years I have been committed to organic gardening and the natural foods movement, “Slow Food” before it had a name. Over the years I have cooked for both large and small groups and done restaurant work, private parties, and much catering.

I am so blessed to have a The Hawk and Ivy where my loves and interests are integrated in my home and work. This also gives a richer, more authentic experience for those who come here for classes. It allows for an easy flow between the kitchen and the garden which enhances that spirit of play so conducive to creativity.

The Natural Kitchen and Natural Foods 101

 

This will be a basic, how to get started class. We will look at how to make each of your kitchens more beautiful, efficient and well stocked. I will do an over view of natural foods and then we will make bread, cook various grains, and discuss how to put easy healthy meals together. Everyone will receive lots of information.

 

         James and Eve plan to begin offering small workshops in developing inner guidance and following one's dreams.
