Cooking with Chef Eva

Chef Eva designs her classes to highlight the fun and magic of cooking. If you just want to learn the basics of cooking or if you want to go fancy and surprise a special person in your life, cooking classes at the Greer Farm are a culinary event you will never forget. Every class is a hands-on experience. There are no overhead mirrors or video screens. Our classes include laughter, questions, conversation, and... eating. We want to show you how great food begins and feel the passion and commitment we have to food, including that grown on our family farm or by other artisan producers.

Chef Eva opens her chef's kitchen to share her culinary expertise with those that want to expand their culinary talents. Situated on a real working farm and ranch it is not difficult to get caught up in the "farm to table" spirit that prevails on our family farm. We offer regular classes throughout the year at the farm. In addition, we can offer special classes to groups and individuals by prior arrangement.

If you're tired of all the boring, bridge building, corporate bonding retreats that too many companies thrust their management and employees into, consider something different: a retreat that includes a farm stay, relax in log cabins and take a group cooking class. If you are not part of a corporate group, then bring a group of friends or family to the farm, rent log cabins and spending the weekend cooking, eating and renewing your friendship. There is nothing that makes people bond quicker than good food.

Who is Chef Eva?

Chef Eva was born and raised in Belize. She is a graduate of Loyola University and The Houston Art Institute (Culinary Arts). For a number of years she has been a consultant to Pilgrim's Pride Corporation developing recipes , including their newsletter. Her recipes have appeared in advertisements in Good Housekeeping and Southern Living. Chef Eva's private dining and catering services are renowned. For more than a decade she has been teaching cooking classes at the family farm, at a local community college, and other venues. Chef Eva's Latin American upbringing, European parental influences, and two decades of world travel with her husband bring a unique experience to the kitchen that is not easily duplicated. We hope to see you at the table!
