KITCHENETTE FARM COOKING SCHOOL
We host bespoke culinary workshops and seasonal gatherings at our turn-of-the-century farm. Custom menus are inspired by an upscale approach to porchfront farm dinners.
OFFERINGS
Private farm hands-on cooking classes, demos and events include signature cocktails, wine pairings, an appetizer, dinner, and dessert.
Fridays at the Farm cooking classes are shorter daytime workshops that run from 11 am-1:30 pm. We cook a seasonal lunch and enjoy it on the screened-in porch, weather permitting. Private groups only. We can accommodate cooking class demos and tastings for large groups or 10 for a sit-down lunch inside in the dining room or 18-20 on the screened-in porch. Email for availability.
Fridays at the Farm Classes
These daytime cooking classes are available for sign up as a single attendee or with a group of friends. For a private group class, email for availability. We book about three months in advance! Private groups are a $3,500 minimum.

WE CAN’T WAIT TO OPEN OUR DOORS TO VISITORS WHO WANT TO EXPERIENCE A CONVIVIAL COOKING CLASS AND DINING EXPERIENCE.
Fridays at the Farm is a day of cooking, learning and tasting. You’ll go home inspired and refreshed! Our students are drawn together by a shared love of food, wine, farm-fresh cocktails and the allure of Round Top! This program includes a two-hour hands-on cooking class in our farm kitchen and a wine-paired lunch.
EXPERIENCE KITCHENETTE FARM
In our teaching kitchen, you’ll tie on a Kitchenette apron, then we will talk through the day’s menu. We will demonstrate culinary techniques, knife skills, share useful tips and favorite ingredients. Then everyone gets to work in the hands-on class.
Once the cooking commences, aprons come off, and we’ll head to the screened-in porch for a leisurely lunch paired with wine. We can’t wait for you to experience Kitchenette Farm.
