About
All In A Jar's cooking school is a hands on class. Students get to be in the kitchen mixing, measuring, and cooking. Which is a great way to learn. The class start will a tour on All In A Jar's 4000 square foot garden then in to the kitchen for a snack which features some yummy creative appetizers that came from the garden and All In A Jar's pantry jar goodies. We do a minimum of two recipes each class. In the summer when the garden is producing an abundance we may make up to four recipes. After class we sit down to share a meal together.
I enjoy watching students get excited about learning something new. The best part of cooking it is endless . Use your imagination and have fun.

How did you get started teaching?
After hearing over a thousand time I wish I know how to preserve food and cook so creatively like you. I decided in the year 2012 to started my cooking school called All In A Jar. I also was hired by Back To The Table cooking school in Lafayette Ca., by Cozy Meal in San Francisco, Alamo Ace Hardware Store and a few learning gardens.
What types of students have you worked with?
All In A Jar has had students that have never been in the kitchen, to culinary students and extrem experinced students.
Describe a recent event you are fond of.
All In A Jar's class are a lot of fun. The last private birthday party here at "The Farm" was so much fun they are coming back for an other birthday party. Private parties allow students to visit with their friend without interrupting other classmates.
What advice would you give a student looking to hire a teacher in your area of expertise?
My advice to students is to call the instructor ask about classes and see if it is the right fit for them.
What questions should students think through before talking to teachers about their needs?
The students should ask themselves what do I want from a class? Is it a fun experience or is it a certain skill you want to learn.
