We are spending the month of September in Italy and are hoping to find a small B&B/pension/sobe/zimmer/room that would also provide us with some Italian language and cooking lessons. Anyone stumble across this gem and want to share? We are on a budget so the pre-packaged agritourismo courses are out of our price range. Thanks for the help fellow travelers!

You should try here as they offer apartments and B&B accommodation and there is kitchen where owner lady preparing dinner for the guest and is pleased to give you a description of the preparation of dishes.
Hope it helps.
Here's one link to prior discussions of this: Tuscany cooking classTo get other links, search on "tuscany cooking" in search box upper right.
They are out there but let me warn you, they are very expensive!!! I know someone who took a 1 day cooking class in Tuscany and spent about $500.00 and that was one of the cheaper ones. Good luck!
Read this blog at http://bellofcow.blogspot.com/2006_06_01_archive.html. I personally recommend it. If you go there feel free to mention me to Franco Mansi, an old friend of mine.
