We cook with fresh organic, local produce and products when available. We emphasize nutritional recipes and alternative ingredients to instill a healthy understanding of food through cooking.

Family Development
Family ROI is a non-profit organization dedicated to helping people of all backgrounds apply proven business principles to revitalize, focus, and strengthen the most important organization in the world-their own family. Unaffiliated with any religious or political agenda, we help families identify tools and strategies to grow stronger and achieve their own unique vision of success. Family ROI measures success on your own family's terms. Just as a corporation measures success in terms of its Return On Investment (ROI), a family can measure success by the return its members receive from investing in each other and their shared future. Just as succesful companies do, families can achieve greater long-term success by defining their own unique vision, setting goals and executing a plan to achieve them. The Family ROI Program enables families to launch this important process efficiently and effectively. For more information please visit out website www.familyroi.org or call us at 831-430-1950.

Science Classes
Physics and Chemistry at Schools - One of the most effective and fun ways to learn science is through hands-on active learning. There is great interest and need for effective science education. The subjects we teach through experiments are: air pressure, earth sciences, electricity, energy, light, motion, sound, temperature and more. Every year we teach more than a 100 class hours for grades 2-12 after school and during the day at public, private, home and charter schools. Weekly programs are taught in 5-8 week series during or after school or on early dismissal days. Class tuition varies with the location of the class and the number of students. We show that science is fun, and that students are a lot smarter than they think. Outdoor Science Education, 831-423-5925
