About Us
At 4ft and Up Kitchen we love the effect cooking food together has on a community. It brings families and friends closer and helps pass down culinary traditions for generations. Our adult and young chef cooking classes not only teach you how to cook but also where your food comes from, how to prepare it in different and interesting ways, and what nutrients it gives to your body. We want to help people of all ages develop a healthy relationship with food and food culture one dish at a time. All of our classes are vegetarian and nut free.
