Benagerie Bountiful Table

Benagerie is a hospitality-driven culinary project rooted in the belief that food has the power to nourish both people and community. Through cooking classes, shared meals, and inclusive culinary education, Benagerie creates welcoming spaces where people can reconnect with food, each other, and themselves.

​

Founded by chef Hannah Benage, Benagerie blends professional culinary experience with a deeply personal commitment to hospitality as care. Whether hosting a garden dinner, teaching a cooking class, or gathering around a shared table, the goal is always the same: to create experiences where people feel nourished, welcomed, and at ease.

​

Alongside its culinary events and classes, Benagerie is developing Benagerie Bountiful Table, an inclusive cooking program designed to help neurodivergent individuals, disabled adults, and transition-age foster youth build confidence and independence through practical kitchen skills. By creating sensory-aware learning environments and focusing on real-life meal preparation, the program helps participants develop greater agency in their relationship with food.

​

Together, these experiences form a broader vision of hospitality—one that extends beyond the table and into community care, life skills, and shared belonging.

​

At its heart, Benagerie is about creating spaces where everyone has a seat at the table.
