Join us for a warm, hands-on late morning of cooking, sharing, and connection, inspired by the old folk tale of Stone Soup, where a handful of strangers, each bringing a little of what they have, come together to make something nourishing for everyone.
We'll start by getting to know one another, then roll up our sleeves for some communal food prep: chopping, peeling, and building a big pot of vegetable soup together, using whatever good ingredients we've each brought to share. While the soup simmers, we'll turn to the griddle to make traditional scones from scratch, choosing our own flavours and fillings along the way, from cheese and caramelised leek to chocolate chip and apple.
No cooking experience needed — just come as you are, ready to chat, chop, and share a table. We'll finish by sitting down together over tea, coffee, and the food we've made, with time to reflect on what we've learned and what we'd like to cook next.
This session is about:
Bringing the community together over food
Learning safe, simple kitchen skills (knife handling, hygiene, and more)
Exploring budget-friendly, low-waste cooking
Building confidence, connection, and a sense of belonging
