The Vitality Culinary Academy is located in the heart of Patagonia in the beautiful La Mision. We are so pleased to utilize this building as our Academy site. La Mision is truly unique and wonderful to behold with its breathtaking murals and spacious adobe layout.  The building is a synthesis of Archangel Michael's mission to guide humanity out of darkness and self-destruction by slaying the dragon within.  In a humble yet tangible way, the birthing of La Mision de San Miguel out of decay became the parable for the transformation of a building, of a soul, of a community and now a school for self transformation.
