Ground Up Cookery School is a family-run business founded in 2019 by Colin and Natasha, stemming from their lifelong passion for food and drink—from growing and foraging to preserving and cooking. 

Surrounded by nature, local farms, diverse producers, and with the sea within easy reach, Ground Up Cookery School is ideally situated to offer a rich culinary experience.

Our love for food and drink drives our dedication to celebrating seasonal ingredients and fleeting flavors. Whether through growing, foraging, cooking, or preserving, we emphasize the importance of using foraged and seasonal produce. We blend traditional culinary techniques with modern methods and equipment to enhance these classic practices.

Ground Up Cookery School also produce their own spirits in small batches using seasonal, foraged and local ingredients.
