Green & Gold: Cultivating Leeks and Onions for Perfect Colcannon

Discover the full journey from garden bed to comfort-food classic in this hands-on class. We’ll begin with a practical lesson on how to successfully grow onions and leeks—covering planting techniques, spacing, soil needs, and tips for strong, flavorful harvests.

Then we’ll take those alliums into the kitchen to make traditional Irish Colcannon, a creamy, rustic dish of mashed potatoes folded with sautéed greens and tender leeks or onions. You’ll learn how to balance flavors, choose the right potatoes, and create a dish that’s both simple and deeply satisfying. 

Perfect for gardeners, home cooks, and lovers of Irish cuisine alike, this class blends cultivation and cooking into one delicious experience.
