This is not a cooking class or a typical farm tour. Guests spend the day on a working small farm and vineyard, exploring practical approaches to food resilience, preservation, self-sufficiency, and perennial food systems. Whether you live on a farm, in a suburb, or in a city apartment, you'll leave with a better understanding of where food comes from, how to build greater resilience into everyday life, and how to eat well even during disruptions and uncertainty. Along the way, guests enjoy a fusion lunch and local wine under the vines while sharing ideas and experiences. The focus is on practical knowledge, meaningful conversation, delicious food, and discovering that resilience can be both achievable and enjoyable. Guests leave with a practical resilience workbook and a clearer understanding of how to build a more self-reliant kitchen, pantry, and food system at whatever scale fits their lives.
