Elkstone Farm

I'm Chef Russell Goodman, believer in the power of fresh local food and cooking methods that allow that food to shine. As a former epidemiologist, I have come to realize the crucial role nutritious food plays in whole body health, and therefore I'm an advocate of food security for all. A core belief of mine is that provenance matters in food.

Sharing knowledge is one of the most important and rewarding things we do at Elkstone Farm. Our farm-based masterclasses will help you deepen your relationship with the land, while providing practical skills that can be used to gain natural harmony and abundance in daily life.

Our instructors, who are masters of their trades, will lead action-based classes and supply uncommon wisdom that will inspire you along your own journey with earth-based skills.Elkstone Farm masterclasses are relevant to this beautiful area we call home, and most classes are accessible to curious people of all skill and knowledge levels.

Elkstone's dinners capture the essence of the Farm-to-Table'' dining experience as the food on your plate comes directly from our gardens, greenhouse and orchards.Depending on weather conditions, dinners will be held in our verdant greenhouse or on the spacious back porch overlooking the aspen grove, and often appetizers will be served in the flower garden.
