Heirloom Fire Cooking Classes Are Launching

For the past eleven years, most people have experienced Heirloom Fire through weddings, large gatherings, and immersive dinners.
But there has always been another side to this work.
The quiet moments before service.The fire being built in the early morning.A knife moving through onions on a wooden board.A chicken roasting slowly while stories unfold around the table.
This spring we are opening that world up.
For the first time, Heirloom Fire will be hosting a small series of cooking workshops and classes at our space in the Berkshires. These are designed to be intimate, hands-on, and deeply practical. Not demonstrations. Real cooking.
Most classes will be limited to only eight people.
The goal is simple. Come learn something real. Cook with your hands. Some classes focus on foundational kitchen skills. Others culminate with cooking over live fire and sharing a meal together.
Because cooking is not just technique.
It is craft. It is patience.It is connection.
We’re excited to launch a new series of intimate, hands-on cooking classes at Heirloom Fire. From knife skills and preservation to live-fire cooking over hardwood, these workshops are designed to give people real technique, real confidence, and a deeper connection to cooking. Some classes focus on foundational skills, while our fire classes end the way they should, with a shared meal and wine around the table. With most classes capped at just eight people, these will be highly limited and designed for a more personal experience.
Extremely Limited Release
ROAST CHICKEN GARUM
Last week we mentioned something quietly in the newsletter.
Now it's ready.
We produced an extremely small batch of Roast Chicken Garum, made from our slowly roasted pasture-raised chickens.
This is not a sauce.It's closer to a culinary amplifier.
Deeply savory.Incredibly umami-rich.A few drops can transform an entire dish.
Use it in:
• roasted vegetables• soups and broths• pan sauces• grains and risotto• braised meats• marinades• pasta
Anywhere you want depth.
It carries the same ancient fermentation logic that fish sauce does, but with the rich flavor of roasted chicken.
The batch is very limited, and once it is gone we will not have more for quite some time.
NEXT WEEKEND
SEED + SMOKE
Next week we host SEED + SMOKE, one of our most immersive dinners of the season.
All week long we have been in the shop crafting the experience.
Wood serving pieces.Hand-built presentation elements.Custom pieces that only exist for this dinner.
This is not a restaurant meal.
It is something much closer to a theatrical culinary experience.
Seven courses.Fire, smoke, and early spring ingredients.Wine and cocktails included.
If you have been to one of our dinners before, you already know.
If you haven't, this is the one.
Only a handful of tickets remain.
