Celebrate early spring at Bella Luna Farms with Chef Bruce Naftaly—often called the “Father of Northwest Cuisine” and a longtime champion of cooking with the seasons. In this garden-forward workshop, Chef Bruce draws on his French sensibility and Northwest roots to showcase the first flavors of spring. Together, you’ll make a revitalizing nettle soup, a roasted rack of pork with spring garlic, wild licorice, and foraged mushrooms, and an impromptu salad dressed with mustard vinaigrette. The class wraps up with a fragrant rhubarb and lavender clafoutis. Throughout the afternoon, Chef Bruce will share his thoughtful approach to technique, flavor, and cooking with spring’s earliest gifts.

At each Bella Luna class you will get the chance to enjoy Bellsong Creamery cheeses, sip a glass of something special, and gather around a beautifully prepared meal.
