What is a Rabbit Hill Experience?
It’s about delicious food …
You might already know that I am a passionate FOODIE, who loves going to the local markets and shops to find inspiration to feed the people that I love. Come along with me to shop, menu plan, and cook in my kitchen at Rabbit Hill.
Why we love to create experiences …
It’s about being open to trying something new and learning in a personal way …
This year we are thrilled to include new activities on the farm, from raising goats and starting a farm to restoring copper cookware. Come spend a day or two while we show you how!
It’s about gathering and sharing …
Maybe you just want an intimate perspective on French life. You are eager to explore French flea markets and share a classic French meal. We know our experiences at Rabbit Hill will be the highlight of your time in France!
Since 2013 I have been sharing experiences on our farm.
My vision for what initially was created as workshops was to share the authentic French country cooking, lifestyle, and traditions and to teach and share in a way that inspires participants to learn these essential elements of the French life and to transfer and apply these ideas within their own homes. Sharing our experiences with guests and travelers (that soon become lifelong friends!) enriches our lives.
We are thrilled to offer Rabbit Hill Experiences that encompass the wide scope of passions we have gained since moving to our farm in 2013. Shopping at the markets, experiencing Normandy farm life, and gathering around a large table of friends.
Rabbit Hill Kitchen
MARKETS & COOKING
Welcome to my kitchen at Rabbit Hill. If you are a foodie at heart and dream of creating a classic French meal to share with friends and family – our Rabbit Hill Kitchen – Markets & Cooking experience is just for you! Come with me to one of our local markets to meet artisan makers and farmers and experience the best food and produce from our region. We will explore the markets before heading back to the farm and my kitchen to plan our menu and create a 5-course French feast.
Rabbit Hill Copper
ARTISAN COPPER RESTORATION EXPERIENCE
Come to observe and learn firsthand about copper restoration at our farm in Normandy. Your visit includes a complete demonstration of the intriguing process of restoring antique copper cookware along with a farm tour, a light picnic lunch or aperitif, and the opportunity to select a hand restored piece from our Rabbit Hill Copper collection to bring home. Or you can bring a cherished copper item, for us to restore for you.

Questions?
All of the experiences that we offer at Rabbit Hill, can be arranged for groups of 4 – 12 (depending on event) or booked as a private day for friends or couples traveling together. A minimum of two people is required to book unless we can add you as a single person to an existing booking. Experiences are offered based on the appropriate season and availability of markets and excursions, etc.
Not able to settle on only one experience? We would love to combine the different opportunities that we offer. A day at the market, a 5-course dinner at our home? A visit to see the farm with a summer picnic or BBQ? We would love to custom design your time with us.
DINNER AT RABBIT HILL
An Exclusive Once in a Lifetime Meal Event
One of our most favorite ways to host guests is to create an exceptional dining experience in our home. Maybe you just want to kick-back and relax while you enjoy the meal of a lifetime. Gather your friends for a hosted meal that begins with an aperitif or wine-tasting and ends with a sumptuous dessert course with all of the extras in between. We will chat about wine, French tradition and culture and of course food, with small demonstrations and stories woven throughout each course. It’s a chance to really get to know us and share an insider's peek of our life at Rabbit Hill. Your dinner event is completely catered to your preferences and can be casual or formal.
Can’t make it to France?
I also love traveling to the United States and English-speaking locations, to host workshops or events - which is perfect for those that cannot attend a workshop in France. US events include sharing inspiration about our French life, culinary instruction, and all things foodie. It is a chance to get away, explore new locations, and meet new friends.
If you are interested in collaborating on a US or UK event - send me a message! I would love to work with you!
