About the event
What is this workshop?
Food is not a matter, food is your very being. This is an invitation to join a small and intimate group that will meet in a beautiful permaculture farm in South Wales, close to the turning of the seasons, to work , understand and cook their way to a better relationship with their food, themselves and the world around them.Â
Why should I attend?
Ever felt like cooking is a waste of time? Do you wish to find some joy in the kitchen? Feel like you can’t tell the difference anymore between healthy food, real food and fake food? Feeling like something is just stuck in your life and you don't know why? Well then, come join us. This IS FOR YOU!
Most of us are so confused with food and with our eating habits. We are bombarded with information about health, science, nutrition and it seems like the latest trend is just around the corner, or on the next Instagram reel. Â The daily choice of what to cook, eat and consume is becoming an inner confilct, and its exhausting.Â
Together, sharing from our experiences and breaking down some myths, we will dive deep into our habits, addictions and misconceptions about the world of food, cooking and eating, trying to settle this inner conflict once and for all
What will actually happen?
Each day we will practice the art and craft of cooking in the kitchen and cook at least one of our meals together. We will also have some movement classes (fit for any level), Zen- meditation sessions and walks, conversations and sharing circles around our relationships to food and some other surprises.Â
This is a practical workshop and each day we will spend some time working in the kitchen so please bare that in mind.
Here are some of the recipes we will learn in the workshop:
- The ultimate comfort food- tomato spaghetti
- Baba ganoush
- Silky smooth mashed-potatoes
- How to roast any kind of vegetable in the world
- The perfect scrambled eggs
- The easiest and most decadent chocolate fudge cake
- Chocolate chip cookies to die for
- The ultimate salad dressing
- How to make a full dinner party for 4

Is the workshop vegetarian/vegan?
We are very lucky to do our workshop at Three Pools farm which lovingly grow animals for some of the top restaurants in the UK. And so we will cook meat products in the workshop, however we will always make vegetarian and vegan dishes for every meal.

We have 3 heated hand built beautiful wooden cabins. They come fully double beds and are fully furinshed, compost loos out side and heated showers also but not in the cabins themselves.Â
