Welcome to the website! I hope you all like it. I will add a new newsletter every month, approximately, with a corresponding recipe-of-the-month. The Calendar will be updated regularly, to reflect the many classes we will be having. So, come back frequently and see what’s new!
We continue to improve this website, so here are a few new features to make using it easier
- You will now be able to look at classes either as a list or via the calendar.
- Our NEW IMPROVED calendar also allows you to purchase classes online, with Paypal (follow the instructions in the individual listings, as they vary).
We have a lot of sold out classes, which I have not listed below —if you want to be on the waitlist for any of them, just follow the links, from the calendar or list of classes, for instructions.
EVENT!
Every year the City of Piedmont holds a wonderful Harvest Festival—I’ve been involved in creating the food for each one, and this year the festival is on September 25th, from 11-3 at the Piedmont Main Park and Community Center, on Highland. The Piedmont Jazz Festival, a marvelous scarecrow row—with silent auction to benefit the schools in case you want a creative scarecrow to grace your front porch—plus a great kids carnival put on by the elementary schools, tastings of all the contest entries, jams, pestos, pies etc., a great lunch of grilled items and salads plus fresh-squeezed Piedmont lemonade (all the lemons come from local trees), a farmers market hosted by Village Market, and FREE admission makes this a destination not to be missed.
