Our cooking classes are a one-of-a-kind experience. You’ll be cooking a meal all focused on the farm’s produce we are visiting. We bring all the equipment to have a fully functioning kitchen on a farm!
The dishes for this class will be finalized about a week before the class, as we focus the meal entirely around whatever local produce is available from Farm Shark! We make sure that the meals are balanced and that you leave the class feeling satisfied and full.
The farm anticipates having long beans, peppers, tomatoes, eggplants, apples, and goat milk – so we guarantee it will be a tasty meal.
Zoey and Carlos (and their son Otis) are the forces behind Farm Shark. They grow diversified vegetables on three different plots in Albuquerque’s South Valley, and focus their garlic production at Carlos’s moms farm in Polvadera, NM. They never use any chemical fertilizers or pesticides, rotate small livestock through their fields, and focus on growing food that is both nourishing and delicious!
This class is for someone who wants a unique cooking experience. You’ll learn about local farms, sustainability, nutrition, and cooking techniques. Our recipes focus on teaching you how to utilize and cook with seasonal produce, but it doesn’t matter if you are a vegetarian, vegan, or carnivore – we all need to eat more plants!
Whether you’re a beginner or more seasoned cook, everyone can learn from our classes. We always have extra staff who can help with additional instruction if needed.
