In this popular hands-on, outdoor cooking class, Chef Thi will teach you the essentials of making farm-to-hearth pizza using Powisset’s outdoor wood-fired brick oven. You will make your own dough and prepare toppings before your creation goes into the brick oven. Then, we will have an al fresco lunch comprised of our delicious pizzas, while enjoying the farm’s beautiful relaxing scenery. You will be given recipes and pizza dough to bring home. Limited to 12.
