We don’t just promote Southwest Michigan…we love experiencing it, too! 🍽️💙

Our team traded the office for the kitchen this week with a team outing at The Culinary Cottage in downtown St. Joseph, and let’s just say… we had a delicious time!

This local gem brings people together through hands-on cooking experiences where you can learn something new, make a meal from scratch, and, of course, enjoy what you create!

From pasta making and cookie decorating to themed culinary experiences and kids’ classes in their adorable kids’ kitchen, there’s something for aspiring chefs of all ages. 🍝🍪

Everything you need is provided — just bring your appetite and willingness to have some fun!
