The mission of VegeCooking is to educate families about the benefits of eating more fresh fruits, vegetables and plant-foods. We aim to teach the life-skill of cooking, though hands-on practice. Our classes are strongly focused on sustainability, in harmony with the earth and our surroundings by reducing waste, using no single-use plastics and composting our veggies.
The VegeCooking Club offers several different programs:
Hands-on, after-school cooking classes for kids in St. Johns County elementary schools – 1st through 6th grade.
Classes for non-profits such as the Boys & Girls Club, Girl and Boy Scouts of America, and more
In-home cooking classes and parties (contact us for more info!)
Cooking classes for kids, teens and adults at various locations around Jacksonville and St Augustine, Florida
Born and raised in a small town in Northern Italy between the Como lake and Milan Diana lived there for most of her life. Her parents and her region helped her appreciate food ant the food culture, therefore her roots. Food has always been an important part of her life, even more now that she lives far away from home.
After having moved in her 30s to Switzerland then to England, the Netherlands and to the States, she traveled back and forth during summer and Christmas and this allowed her to maintain her childhood friendships and the long life relationships.
Certified English as a Foreign Language teacher, she has a true passion for teaching. Having lived in five different countries and speaking five foreign languages has allowed her to embrace different cultures incorporating them in my cooking classes.
Today, she teaches cooking all around Jacksonville: private houses, clubhouses, retail shops and private venues. Collaborates with several chefs, restaurants and farms. She also teaches Italian and English as a foreign language online and is planning to a culinary tour to Italy in May 2021. She recently started virtual cooking classes to respond to the recent necessity of social distancing. She will be back to teaching in person end of summer.
She is also a proud member of BNI, Ponte Vedra Women’s Club, Women’s Food Alliance, Network of Women, First Coast Women’s Collaborative and First Coast Business Alliance, where she shares her knowledge and enriches herself.
Her burning desire is to open a front store cooking studio one day, where she can showcase her Italian products while continuing educating and sharing her passion for Italy and her unique culture.
