Whilst the schedule is in development, it likely that our courses will cover the following topics and formats:
- Alternative proteins: beans and pulses
- Baking with heritage grains
- Nose-to-tail butchery and cookery
- Cooking and preserving seasonal vegetables
- Seasonal foraging
- Demonstration days for industry professionals
- Affordable sessions designed to connect the community with food
