Local Seasonal Cooking Classes
My seasonal and local food cooking classes will satisfy the needs of both knowledgeable Vancouver Island locavores and cooks new to the concept of eating locally. With a focus on fresh, seasonal, local, sustainable ingredients, and delicious, unpretentious recipes, these cooking classes are a cut above the rest.
Farm to Table Event at Sea Bluff Farm
Join us for a wonderful event where farm-fresh ingredients and natural beauty come together. Our Farm to Table Three-Course Dinner is more than a meal—it’s a celebration of the local food, the hands that cultivate it, and the flavors that inspire us.
Hosted right on the farm, we will dine al fresco at our wooden long table, nestled in a recovered Garry Oak meadow next to the berry patch. This is a beautiful location to enjoy a spectacular farm-to-table meal, using ingredients from local farms - fresh vegetables, herbs, and berries, locally raised meat and wild fish.
Arrive at 5:00 or 5:30 pm for a farm tour. Dinner will start at 6:00 pm.
Chef Heidi will curate a meal based on the ingredients that are at peak that week, ensuring a delicious experience for everyone. Included in the price of the meal are wine pairings with two of the courses.
Meet the Chef, meet the Farmer, get a farm tour, and enjoy a sense of connection to your food and community while you enjoy your meal.
Limited seating available to preserve the intimacy and quality of the experience. Reserve your tickets now and join us for a night of fresh flavors, fine wine, and lots of fun.
