Organic, Vegan, & Raw Food Classes &
Custom Food Preparation

Rawfood Central (RFC): A Community of Organic, Vegan, Whole & Living Food Enthusiasts, mentored by Chef Kathryn Ackland, invites others to join in exploring this delicious, healthy, & vivacious cuisine. Students are instructed in collaboration with our food preparation and scheduled classes.

We offer a great array of instruction in a well-equipped kitchen in Sebastopol, California. Once students master general food prep skills, they are introduced to the worlds of dehydrating, pizza & pastas, cacao/chocolates, cultured and fermented foods, and entrees for entertaining. Imagine the exquisite meals you’ll be able to make for the enjoyment of yourself, family and friends. It will be the best thing ever to bring you together!

So, please check out the calendar of classes and special events, sign up now, or call a friend and sign-up together.
