Testimonials

Let Us Have a Delicious Day Together.
More than a Cooking Class, a Way of Life.
When you want the ultimate Locavore experience, Market Forays is for you.

Happy New Year!
Join a Market Foray and learn how to easily cook fabulous meals using seasonal ingredients.
It will enrich your life everyday.

Fresh seafood right off the boat, fragrant fruit and selected vegetables from neighboring farms,
pastured meats, artisan cheeses paired with premium local wine, the simple pleasures of heartfelt hospitality.
The sensuous way of life that we cherish in French or Italian villages can now be enjoyed on the American Riviera.
Meet our local fishermen, farmers, and artisans.
Discover how to create delicious seasonal meals prepared from locally grown foods, and enjoy them in a relaxed, playful atmosphere.

I look forward to meeting you soon,
Laurence
