Little Kitchen Academy - Richmond Oval

To families seeking educationally-enriching activities for their children ages 3-18, LKA is the leading Montessori-inspired cooking academy providing a safe and empowering environment to learn practical life skills, confidence, independence, and healthy eating habits to last a lifetime. 

Our recipes incorporate as many local, seasonal, and organic ingredients as possible. Our curriculum reflects the idea that what Mother Nature provides from the ground is what our bodies are needing at specific times of the year. Our recipes support the phrase ‘what grows together, goes together’. Each season, we add to our growing collection of custom-made recipes so our students never make the same dish twice.

If our students need to make a recipe gluten-free, dairy-free, or substitute an ingredient or two because of an allergy or intolerance, we will make it happen! Understanding other people’s dietary restrictions creates empathy and connection.
