Teen Chef Academy is an interactive, hands-on cooking program designed to engage teens through learning essential skills in the kitchen while fostering an understanding of nutrition, sustainability, and food science. Using a mobile cart equipped with all the tools necessary for cooking, teens can learn about the benefits and joys of cooking while connecting with their peers. The curriculum covers a variety of topics, from basic knife skills to creating balanced meals, with an emphasis on using fresh, local ingredients. Through practical lessons, teens will gain confidence in the kitchen, learn to appreciate healthy eating habits, and develop a deeper connection to the food they eat.
