Whether you are from a school, our local community or a company or organisation we have classes just for you. Schools can book curriculum-linked classes for all year groups. For the community, we offer paid-for and free sessions for adults and after-school or holiday sessions for children. Companies and organisations can book team-building days that help fund our low-cost and free programmes for local people.
Cook and grow with us
We offer hands-on sessions to schools, families, businesses and members of our local community. Book a curriculum-linked class for your pupils, experience a cooking or gardening masterclass, or find a free-to-access community course – there’s something for everyone.

How we're funded
Hackney School of Food is a not-for-profit, set up as a community interest company. This means all our profits go back into running our organisation so that we can support even more people with our work. We offer both low-cost and free classes thanks to the money we raise through donations and grants as well as corporate events, paid-for classes and hiring out our spaces.
