Nourish Workshop Series: From Soil to Sweet with Darren Purchese & Cath Claringbold

WHAT YOU WILL LEARN
Discover how fresh, seasonal produce from Farm My School Bellarine can be transformed into something truly indulgent – and still good for you.

WHO YOU WORK WITH
Renowned chefs and Tastes of Greater Geelong Ambassadors, Darren Purchese and Cath Claringbold bring the sweetness to Farm My School’s Nourish workshop.

In this hands-on workshop, participants go on a journey from learning about how the produce was grown to delivering delicious dishes. Begin with an overview of Farm My School, before working in the kitchen to create a nutrient-rich dessert that celebrates local and seasonal produce from Farm My School.

WHAT YOU NEED
Please wear comfortable shoes and clothing suitable for standing and working in the kitchen as part of the workshop.

Bring your own water bottle and food containers.

WHO ARE WE
Farm My School is a not-for-profit organisation which collaborates with schools to transform their underutilised grounds into regenerative farms that nourish, educate and connect communities. We are driven to promote healthy eating, ecological stewardship and connect communities.

The Farm My School Nourish workshop series has been designed to help families unlock affordable ways to grow and cook simple, nourishing food. Run by renowned chefs, food makers, authors and our own Farm My School team, the workshops are designed to encourage simple and practical ways to think about food growing, health and wellbeing.

WHAT ELSE DO WE DO
We work with organically-grown, seasonal produce from Farm My School, which are available to purchase via our weekly or subscription veggie boxes. We also offer education sessions, incubator traineeships and corporate experiences. This is more than a farm – this is a food hub built for community, connection, education and sustainability!
