Teaching Kitchen

Eating local, seasonal food has enormous benefits for our health, environment, and economy. But first you have to cook it. We designed the Turner Farm Teaching Kitchen in consultation with the Culinary Institute of America to teach people to do just that. With a focus on health and wellness, our Executive Chef’s cooking classes give food enthusiasts of all ages and skill levels the knowledge and confidence to cook nutritious and delicious meals. All classes offer a true farm-to-table experience, utilizing the freshest ingredients from Turner Farm or other local farmers and producers.

Barn Studio

Cooking classes are held in our exquisitely renovated 100-year-old barn. What was once the farm workshop is now a state-of-the-art teaching kitchen with eight, two-person cooking stations—the perfect setup for intimate, hands-workshops. The dining room, previously the art studio of Turner Farm founder Bonnie Mitsui, features a TV connected to a series of cameras in the kitchen, so there’s always a way to see what’s being demonstrated during bigger, lecture-based classes with up to 50 students.

Cooking Classes

All of our cooking classes include appetizers and wine in addition to the menu described. Our classes are capped at 16 people per class. The classes are from 6:00pm-8:30pm. You will receive a confirmation email upon booking and a reminder text within 24 hours prior to the class.

When attending our classes, NO outside liquor can be brought onto our property at any time. Each ticket includes wine throughout the class.

Upon arriving for your class, please park in the designated “event parking” area halfway up our driveway. Our Farm Market is open to the public so we reserve the parking spaces near the Farm Market for those customers only.

If you need a vegetarian option or have an allergy, please email us at info@turnerfarm.org at least 3 days prior to the event. If you have any questions or concerns, feel free to contact Jill Gunter at jill@turnerfarm.org or 513.561.7400.
