What to expect

Participate in a traditional cooking class full of fun and flavor, as you visit with a unique social enterprise - Seven Women - that has changed the lives of more than 5,000 disadvantaged women in Nepal.

The class will take place at the Seven Women headquarters in Kathmandu, where you will meet some of the women of the organization and hear all about the massive impact it's had in Nepal through its literacy classes, skills training, and income generation programs. It all began with seven women operating out of a tin shed to now assisting more than 5,000 women.

First up, you’ll be taken on a tour through their greenhouse, where you’ll learn about Nepalese vegetables and other seasonal produce, and the practice of greenhouse farming. Once you have a grasp on the local ingredients, you’ll learn some delicious Nepalese recipes, all of which will be explained by local women who have passed them along through the generations. You will be guided through the recipe preparation and local methods while you learn to cook some of Nepal’s most traditional and tasty dishes. After the meal is made, you’ll all sit down to dine together.
