Holiday Parties at HQ
*Holiday party menus and cooking classes coming soon!
Would you like to host a Holiday party for your staff with a socially conscious twist?
Hosting your Holiday event at Growing Chefs! HQ allows you to simultaneously support our local charity, while also contributing to food education in our community! Growing Chefs! works on social enterprise model, meaning all proceeds raised from private and corporate events flow directly back into our School Food Education Projects.
Growing Chefs! Ontario can accommodate a variety of group sizes: cooking classes from 12 – 40ppl; plated meals up to 60ppl, and up to 100ppl for a standing reception-style event, plus many options in between. If you don’t see what you’re looking for, just send us a note to jen@​growingchefsontario.​ca.
*However, we specialize in high-energy, chef-lead, hands-on private cooking classes; these make stellar team building events for the Holidays!
**cooking classes for 30+ppl will be moved to our other location: Growing Chefs! at The Grove, at 900 King St. (Western Fair).
If you’re looking for a seated menu or other dining experiences, reach out for our fabulous Holiday menu options: a delicious feast featuring the very best of local and seasonal flavours!
Meals at HQ are served family style, as we believe that food is communal and this is the best way for groups to interact and engage in conversations ~ something we teach all children who come through our doors.
*Please note: for private HOLIDAY events in our space, we do require a minimum spend of $2000 in order to cover our food and labour costs.

Our Chefs are truly remarkable and our mission is to provide you with delicious, seasonal, LOCAL foods whenever possible. We are happy to accommodate most dietary restrictions within your party, as long as detailed information is provided at least 1 week in advance.
For more information or to book your Holiday Party today, please contact Jen Wyant: jen@​growingchefsontario.​ca.
Please note due to the nature of our programming, and education being our first priority, we do have a limited number of dates available for these parties; so to avoid disappointment, book today!
These costs are all-in; as all private events are considered fundraisers for Growing Chefs! we are no longer required to charge taxes on private events (bar costs excepted!). Plus, we do not automatically add a gratuity to your invoice, saving you 18 to 25% on your overall event, when compared to booking at local, for-profit restaurants or hotel properties. Any additional funds provided are considered a direct donation to our Food Education Projects and are eligible to receive a tax receipt and be listed as a Food Education Supporter in upcoming printed materials.
As part of our socially-conscience efforts, we are proud to hold accreditations for both a Living Wage employer and Rainbow Registered certification.
