This Women's History Month, join us for a farm-grown celebration of one of history's most iconic female chefs, Julia Child, and her cuisine. This hands-on class, with Chef Thi of Powisset Farm, will introduce you to some of Julia Child’s most beloved and popular recipes. We will make Local Cheese Gougères, Beef Bourguignon, and Gateau a l'Orange. You will learn how to incorporate Julia Child’s legacy into your own cooking. After class, we will sit down to enjoy the meal we prepared. “Bon Appetit!”
