Here at Sprouts, we are unique in that the food for our classes is ordered well in advance of each class, and we also purchase that food (as well as staff our teachers) based upon the number of children participating in each class.  Additionally, we have limited space for each of our classes, so once a spot for a class is sold, that means someone else can’t purchase that spot and we are unable to re-sell spaces effectively.  Due to these operational costs, the fact that our food is perishable, and that our classes have limited space, ALL PURCHASES ARE FINAL AND NON-REFUNDABLE.

For cancellation policies for a Sprouts class, camp, birthday party, or MemberChef® program, please see the individual policies outlined below.

In the event any Sprouts class, camp, birthday party, or MemberChef® program is cancelled for reasons beyond our control, including but not limited to inclement weather, natural disaster, pandemic (including due to COVID-19), government-issued order and/or insufficient number of participants, YOUR REGISTRATION WILL BE CREDITED TOWARDS A FUTURE CLASS, CAMP, BIRTHDAY PARTY, OR MEMBERCHEF® PROGRAM. WE DO NOT ISSUE REFUNDS.

Individual Classes. We are understanding that kids get sick or that plans may change for unforeseen reasons.  If this happens and you expect to miss a single session class, we require that you provide Sprouts with WRITTEN notice to info@sproutscookingschool.com forty-eight (48) hours prior to your missed event.  If you have to miss an individual class, and you have notified us within 48 hours, you will receive a credit.  We will keep the credit of your purchase on file until the end of that calendar year.  This amount can be applied towards a future camp, class, or any other event. However, please note that if you need to change to a different class, for any reason and regardless of notice, you will be charged a $15 change order fee for each single session class purchase. 

No-shows and/or cancellations within 48-hours of the class CANNOT AND WILL NOT be credited as food will have already been purchased, we will have already staffed for the event, and we are unable to re-sell the space effectively.

Camps.  We are understanding that kids get sick or that plans may change for unforeseen reasons.  If this happens and you expect to miss an ENTIRE camp (in other words, not simply 1 day, but all 4 days), we require that you provide Sprouts with WRITTEN notice to info@sproutscookingschool.com two (2) weeks prior to your missed camp.  Please note: we do NOT offer makeup days for individual camp days that are missed.  If you have to miss an ENTIRE camp, and you have notified us 2 weeks prior to your camp, you will receive a credit.  We will keep the credit of your purchase on file until the end of that calendar year.  This amount can be applied towards a future camp, class, or any other event. However, please note that if you need to change to a different camp, for any reason and regardless of notice, you will be charged a $50 change fee for each camp purchased. 

No-shows and/or cancellations within 2 weeks of the camp CANNOT AND WILL NOT be credited as food will have already been planned and or purchased, we will have already staffed for the event, and since our summer camps sell months in advance we are unable to re-sell the space effectively.

Birthday Parties. If you have reserved a birthday party and subsequently need to reschedule the date, please provide written notice to info@sproutscookingschool.com.  However, please note that if you need to change to a different date for the birthday party, we charge a $50 change fee to change birthday party dates.

Any birthday party cancellations are NON-REFUNDABLE and NO CREDITS toward future purchases can be given unless we are able to book a party to take your time slot.

MemberChef®. MemberChef® is a monthly session based membership plan paid by monthly automatic electronic payment (credit card or debit card).  Monthly memberships will automatically renew each month at the same payment terms and billing date established at the time of enrollment. Any changes to the plan, or cancellation must be received thirty (30) days in advance of next billing cycle or plan expiration date. It is the member’s responsibility to monitor membership expiration and renewal dates.

While the MemberChef® program can be cancelled at any time, it is a subscription-based program that will auto-bill each month. This is a program with a curriculum that builds upon itself each month and is not intended to be a short-term program to be cancelled after just 1-2 months. Should you need to cancel for whatever reason, all cancellation requests must be submitted IN WRITING to info@sproutscookingschool.com and received thirty (30) days prior to your credit/debit card processing date.  All MemberChef® subscriptions require a minimum of 30 days prior to the next billing date to assure cancellation of automatic payments.  Cancellation requests submitted within the 30-day billing cycle will result in a final payment drawn you’re your account on your established auto draft date.  Once final payment has been drawn from your account, clients will have 30 days from the last bill date to attend the Sprouts classes. It is your responsibility to provide written notice 30 days in advance of your next billing date. There will be no refund issued once a payment has been charged to your credit card.

No-shows for individual MemberChef® classes CANNOT AND WILL NOT be credited or refunded as food will have already been purchased, we will have already staffed for the event, and the curriculum is different week to week. Sprouts will not provide refunds retroactively for any cancellation requests. MemberChef® cancellations are only processed by sending the Cancellation Request Form to info@sproutscookingschool.com. Sprouts does not issue refunds if you do not use your membership, nor can you carry over sessions to the next month if you missed a class. No exceptions.

Yes! Students will eat all the food they make in class.  Sometimes, a food is new to a child but we practice a “no thank you bite” and encourage students to expand their palates by trying at least one bite of a food that is new to them.

Snow happens, rain happens, but we cook on! Unless there is a travel “WARNING” issued for Hamilton County, we will remain open and class will be in session. In the very rare instance that we are closed, customer purchases will be transferred to another class. If there is inclement weather and class is in session and you make the decision to not come to class unfortunately your purchase cannot be credited towards another class. We do not issue refunds.
