Fanny Gaston, Originally from Remiremont in the Vosges region of France, she grew up in a family rooted in food traditions, from her father being a cheesemonger to shared family gardening and preservation practices that inspired her early passion for cooking.  Fanny believes deeply in hands-on learning and cultural exchange, often encouraging students to connect through food, language, and shared experiences. She has created a welcoming classroom environment where many students return regularly and build lasting friendships, describing her classes as “like a family.” Today, she continues to inspire lifelong learning through her culinary teaching while reconnecting with her roots through gardening, cooking, and sharing her love of food traditions.  Read the complete story here
