The School
Made in Hackney might appear as
your typical vegan cookery school;
however, their story, ethos and the
community they have built makes
them extraordinary. With a strong
belief that everyone should have
access to healthy and affordable
food that is good for one’s self and
the planet, Made In Hackney founder
Sarah Bentley has innovated an eco-
community which is revolutionary (and
liberating) for many.
As a non-profit organisation located
in East London, Made in Hackney
has taken on a fundamental role in
teaching the local community (and
beyond) ethical, environmental and
sustainable ways to live in a population
that is rapidly evolving. Incredibly,on top of that powerful concept, the
company are also driven to educate
individuals on how to tackle chronic ill
health amongst those most vulnerable
or disadvantaged in society by bringing
people together and allowing them to
support each other as a team with one
vital ingredient — plant-based food.
The team at Made In Hackney
provide a variety of free communal
cookery classes that use only local,
seasonal, organic and plant-based
fuel. The classes also teach you how to
grow, preserve and compost food.
We’ve rounded up all of the cookery
courses and community classes so that
you can choose the best option for you.
Whether you are looking to improve
your recipe repertoire or enhance your
employability, Made in Hackney has an
opportunity for you.THE COOKERY COURSES
