Testimonials:
“I had Nicole over to teach myself and 10 friends the basics of kombucha making, yogurt making, and canning and we had such a wonderful evening! Nicole is knowledgeable, friendly, and adaptive to the group and it’s questions or specific interests. We all came away excited to make one of the things we learned, and actually followed up to make them. Was such a fun thing to do with friends vs another dinner out. Nicole structured the session based on our interests, and was flexible to the group. Highly recommend!!” – Danielle G.
“We had a farmCurious party at our house and it was a huge hit. Nice excuse to have people over, and it was interesting to learn all the different areas of urban homesteading that our friends were into (It was like a coming out party for closeted cheesemakers and beer brewers). We had about 15 people over and everybody was transfixed. We learned soooo much stuff, and got hooked into some very, very useful resources that are specific to Bay Area gardening, including Nicole who’s knowledge is encyclopedic. Would definitely do this again, but am hoping I get invited to somebody else’s farmCurious party (hint hint).” – Arkay K
