You will have the opportunity to learn how to cook healthy and easy foods. Guest chefs from restaurants will often stop by to share their techniques and love of food with you. Our brand new community garden will soon start planting! The gardening workshops will teach you everything you need to know about how to grow your own food. As plants grow, we’ll start to have in-season fruits and vegetables for our cooking classes.
