cooking classes
Kids love to cook, and learning how is a gift that lasts a lifetime. Butter Beans teaches after-school cooking classes with seasonal, fun recipes that the whole family can enjoy.
Menus include lunch-time favorites like mac-n-cheese and Jambalaya, they learn culinary tricks to making a terrific vinaigrette and poaching a perfect pear, and they even learn about food preservation while making their own jam and scones!
From the seed to the table, students gain an appreciation for food, learn great cooking techniques, make friends and have an excellent time.

We also offer classes for children ages 3-4. Find out more here.
