Ever so grateful to all your amazing efforts and great leadership, thoughtfulness and creativity." "Thanks Claudia ! I see that Mo's balls is featured on your website =) Great doing yoga with you ! " "Thanks for the recipes, I had a great time and have recommended it to my friends." Again in 2017 Claudia offered her popular vegan cooking retreats.
The owners of Elvey Farm in Pluckley, Mariantonietta and Enrico, enjoyed Claudia's dining during their stay at her vegan B&B in Provence so much they invited her to take her yoga & vegan cooking retreats to Elvey Farm! She showed her guests how to create delicious, tasty and wholesome raw vegan treats using local ingredients and how to present with some simple « tools »... and some Stramacchio |
