Wildflowers and Fresh Food is getting creative to adapt to the challenging times. In response to requests from young adults and parents of young children, owner Kristin Alpine is offering two new cooking workshops this Fall in the Fairhope area.

The first Socially Distanced, Social Gathering for young adults, ages 21 to 35, will be held October 6, 2021 at Fairfield Farm. The property’s unique setting is peppered with Airstreams and features peaceful, panoramic views of the horse pasture, barn and sunset. This cooking class will take place in the outdoor kitchen with lots of fresh air and free space to safely accommodate everyone.

“The request for this class came from the 20+ set, as a fresh way to meet more people in their community and an alternative to the usual bar scene or online options,” says Alpine. For children, she is offering The Creative Kids Event on Columbus Day, October 12, at the beautiful Perone Creek Farm. At this half-day event, kids ages 6 to 12 will learn the art of bread baking, paper making, building driftwood sculptures and cooking their own lunch.

Alpine’s motivation comes from sharing a joy of fresh food and connecting with people. She says, “I don’t force a specific business model. Instead I respond to the requests of the community and beautiful things happen.”
