"The power of gathering is that it inspires us, delightfully, to be more hopeful, more joyful more thoughtful: in a word, more alive." Alice Waters

Maybe you’re looking for something out of the ordinary. Boutique. Active. And delicious. This is about you. The world. And finding your place in it. For over 10 years, the C’est Si Bon! Cooking School has led small, intimate teen groups of 6-10 students through a sensory-awakening, out of the box, educational and personally challenging European taste adventure. You’ll start life-long friendships, learn new travel skills, all while searching out the world’s tastes and how you can cook up your life.
Please visit our blog, Planting Cabbages and read our series Where Are they Now? with pieces about our team, Chef Erick, and a smattering of past participants of our Teen Programs. Learn where Jonathan, Jeremy, Cary, Taylor, Grace, Maya, Elijah, and Nora, are now, and how spending time with C'est si Bon! influenced them in their ife choices.  

"Travel is the only thing you can buy that will make you richer." Chef Erick Snover

​Our fun-filled and powerful curriculum encourages teens to expand their knowledge of international travel, conversational language skills, become food fluent, while plunging into life on foot, bike, paddle board, horse and kayak.

Our mission is to empower you and how you relate and work with others, expand your knowledge of the one of life’s most vital ingredients, working together. Learn the skills and confidence you will need to passionately develop, navigate, and fulfill your life mission and shape the world around you.

We hope you enjoy the program and leave us inspired to find your place at the table. Perhaps you’ll entertain a career in the culinary world, cooking and developing community at your table. Or maybe you’ll champion sustainable ag and raise bees and peaches. So pass the plate – share – and always nourish yourself with people, verdant land and good food.
