Roots & Recipes
One-Time Culinary Experiences That Leave a Lasting Impression
These full-length, one-time culinary sessions (60–90 minutes) invite youth to roll up their sleeves and dive deeper into the foundations of cooking—exploring food through a farm-forward, culturally rooted, and hands-on lens. It’s the fuller, more immersive companion to our mini session series, Sprouts & Spoons, and it’s made for programs that want to give participants the time and space to truly chop, stir, taste, and explore.
Whether it’s making a fresh pasta dish inspired by local ingredients or reimagining a classic family recipe with a modern twist, each session is designed to blend tradition with creativity, and spark curiosity about where our food comes from—and how we can prepare it in meaningful, nourishing ways.
