I really enjoyed my experience on three courses with Daphne Lambert. She is an excellent teacher who shares her thorough, up to date knowledge about nutrition and the impact of our food choices on the planet. She demonstrates her extensive skills in preparing delicious, beautifully presented, plant based dishes with confidence, attention to detail and humour.
I strongly recommend her courses.

Traditionally food preservation was a way of life and the larder the backbone of the kitchen. Today less people consider food preservation a necessity but there are many benefits. Preserving food is still a fantastic way to stretch your budget, help the environment and live a healthier life all at the same time. A well stocked larder will ensure that you have something to eat and share whatever shock befalls our food system.
During the day Daphne will look at three key ways of preserving - drying, fermenting and elixirs and look at the different ways these foods can help support health and well being. At the end of the day you will have learned more about harnessing the healing properties of plants and how to build food resilience in your kitchen.
