Field-to-Feast: The Teen Edition
School’s out for summer . . . STILL! That means there is still time for your teenager to learn a new skill, like farm-to-table cooking. Rushton Farm regular, Chef Donna Laveran, will teach teens, ages 13 through 18, how to prepare a farm-fresh meal featuring the best of the summer harvest. Teens will learn to cook with seasonal, local ingredients from Rushton Farm and prepare a memorable feast, while developing a lifelong appreciation for the bounty made possible through sustainable agriculture.
Menu to be determined based on the harvest calendar, so check back soon for an update. Due to our small class sizes and field-to-feast format, we may not be able to accommodate dietary restrictions.
