FARMcurious is an organization created to educate, inspire people with an interest in producing their own food, preserving the harvest, reducing their environmental impact and eating seasonally and sustainably. We specialize in entertaining science-based hands-on cheesemaking and fermenting workshops.

FARMcurious teaches high-end culinary classes focused on traditional cooking skills such as cheesemaking, fermenting and charcuterie. FARMcurious hopes to encourage people to relearn the skills of home food production and preservation for the sake of life balance, health, eco-friendliness and flavor without having to completely abandon their urban lifestyle. By learning one step at a time, it’s easier than you might imagine!
