For class participants
We will all share a meal in class, and each class participant will take home a bag of food to practice cooking with the ingredients. At the end of the six weeks, there is a graduation where each participant who has come to 4+ classes will receive a chef knife, a cooking tool, and a book of recipes and nutrition tips. Each class participant is expected to come to all six of the classes. If you need to miss a week, you can call or email Shana McCann (contact info below).
About Cooking Matters
Cooking Matters provides 6-week class series on healthy cooking skills, nutrition education, and food budgeting for people living on low incomes. Each class is led by a team of three trained volunteers – Cooking Facilitator, Nutrition Facilitator and Class Assistant – who work alongside a staff coordinator to facilitate fun, lively, interactive, and informative classes. Participants engage in educational activities and help prepare a shared meal.
