Classes

Properly prepared, nutrient dense foods are essential to good lifelong health and healing!

I offer classes in Ancestral food preparation and specifically the GAPS Diet foods, here in beautiful Santa Barbara, California. It’s a fun way to socialize with like minded souls and get hands on experience in traditional, nutrient dense food preparation. Come meet others who are on their own healing journeys! Classes include lectures on the crucial role of digestive health, how to food prep, and how to navigate the GAPS Diet.

Class dates are updated every so often, so be sure to check in to see what is currently offered.

The foods taught here are designed to be made easily in your own kitchen. Each class builds upon the next, beginning with the Kvass Class. You may also simply take classes a la carte.
