A great morning which was very informative and good fun. The school is in a good position and well equipped to enjoy the delights of cooking. Look forward to visiting again.

Fun and very informative!

My husband and I attended the session together. It was a great experience and we learned tons! Highly recommend Introduction to Fermented Food and Drinks!

Thank you Rayanne, we are so pleased that you both enjoyed it, hopefully we will see you again soon.

After attending the Foraging course last year, it was lovely to return to the new school premises and Colin was a great teacher as always and makes fermenting fun! Would have preferred a smaller class – maybe 8-10, as I felt there was limited space to fully enjoy and engage but looking forward to putting into practice my new skills.

Thank you for your feedback, we are still learning the new school and layout. It was definitely a busy event, we have had a chat about how we can improve the use of the space moving forward. Hopefully, we will see you again soon for another event.

Lovely space for the introduction to fermenting

Informative and enjoyable.
Colin has amazing knowledge and great to see, taste and be amazed at how versatile this method of preserving is.

Thank you for your lovely review, we hope to see you again soon.

Fantastic informative course

Had a fabulous time at the fermentation course, got to try lots of different things but loved the fact that the process for each one was explained as well so easy for you to recreate at home. Can't wait for the foraging course!

Thank you for your lovely review. See you back at the Cookery School soon.
