gatherings and workshops
I host several workshops and gatherings throughout the year, and they run in tune with the seasons.
My family style dinners are held at the end of each season, to celebrate the natural shift and the seasonal produce at it's very best.
My workshops are spread through the year, and at each you will be working with the best locally grown fresh produce- this is a great way to learn exactly what each vegetable's true season is.
I am excited to be able to offer my cake decorating and salad making workshops for private bookings. These are perfect for birthday parties, hen's shows, bridal showers or work parties. I can tailor them to your specific requests, and am happy to run workshops for children also. I do prefer to keep them small (10-15 people) as I feel this gives the participants the best experience possible.

seasonal dinners
I truly love gathering people together over a big table of fresh, beautifully prepared food that showcases amazing local producers. And that is exactly what my seasonal dinners are!
An opportunity for you to sit back and enjoy good wine, food and conversation these events are run only four times a year, at each season's end. They are an opportunity to highlight the bounty of each season and a wonderful excuse to sit down at a gorgeous table and make some new friends over a family style meal.
Tickets are extremely limited for these dinners, so the best way to avoid disappointment is to jump on my mailing list, which you can do here.

"Thank you so much for the delightful eye-opening time"
Was so lovely to see two small businesses come together to collaborate. I particularly enjoyed watching Jordan decorate with such exquisite flowers and eco-friendly practices. Jordan you inspired me to grow a beautiful garden, use more of my own produce in cooking and to experiment with different flavours. Thank you for leading the way to a better, eco-friendly, tastier and more colourful future. What a magical afternoon.

'It was so nice to spend an afternoon in the hills"
It was lovely to press pause and do something creatively, with intention, just for myself. Jordan and Jasmine are both SO good at what they do, true artists, who helped create a beautiful atmosphere of creativity and fun. And of course, demolishing the cake at the end was... the icing on the cake!

"The perfect nexus of interests"
Thank you for organising such a dreamy, feminine afternoon- it was the perfect nexus of interests. Will keep my eyes peeled for any future collaborations.

cake decorating
These workshops begin with a glass of local wine or beautiful tea while attendees watch me demonstrate and explain my cake decorating technique. Then everyone gets the chance to fill and decorate their own mini layer cake with fresh fruit curd or compote, silky buttercream and locally grown organic flowers and dried flower petals. We end the workshop sharing the cake I decorated around the table. You go home with your cake, my original butter cake recipe, my best baking tips and tricks and memories of a wonderful afternoon!

These workshops are dedicated to getting you excited about seasonal veggies, and more confident with preparing food using your intuition rather than a recipe. This is how I have been cooking for a while now, and I actually find it difficult to stick to recipes even when I am trying to. This is a liberating way of preparing food because you are restricted by nothing but your taste buds- and it's fun! In these workshops I will highlight a few seasonal veggies and prepare some different salads using them as the main ingredient. Then we will share the food together and you have the opportunity to ask me anything you like about cooking. You will go home with some guides (not strict recipes!) for the ingredients I used and a collection of my best salad and dressing tips and ideas.
