“In all my years of parenting, this has been one of the top programs for children that I have ever encountered. The two and a half hours sped by in a well paced, thoroughly explained and beautifully executed presentation of food, nutrition, food history, kitchen safety and cooking. I was so pleased by what I saw that I would hope that this program could be given to future grade five classes. Absolutely worth fundraising for!! I feel so fortunate that my son was able to experience this.”

Project CHEF: Cook Healthy Edible Food is an experiential, curriculum-based school program aimed at children in grades four and five that teaches students about healthy food: where it comes from, what it tastes like, how to prepare it and how to enjoy sharing it around a table.  

Designed to immerse children in the process of cooking from preparation to clean-up, children gain knowledge about food; they discover the pleasure and satisfaction in creating meals for themselves and they develop the skills so that they can apply their new-found knowledge and abilities in making healthy food choices at home.
