Holly’s Cooking Classes have been inspiring people to prepare great food in their kitchens since 1999. Hundreds of people have come together to prepare delicious meals, meet new people, and have a great time while learning how to nourish themselves well. The classes are hands on, so we are all chopping, slicing and stirring up a great meal as we get to know eachother.

Classes are designed to teach you how to quickly and easily prepare a wide variety of whole, natural foods—simply within your time schedule. You will take home a printed set of recipes so you can easily duplicate our creations in your kitchen. At the end of each class, we sit around the table and enjoy the fruits of our labor- a freshly prepared meal.

We use local, organic, high quality ingredients in our dishes. Classes are held in our country kitchen here at Nourishing Wisdom in Rosendale, NY, unless otherwise noted. So come on over, enjoy a cup of tea or a glass of wine, as we cook together and make new friends while nourishing ourselves well.

Class size is limited to 8 people and they fill quickly. Advanced registration is a must. Bring a friend and make it even more fun. Registration, directions and logistics are below.
