Project CHEF:
Cook Healthy Edible Food
Project CHEF Education Society is a not-for-profit society that offers experiential programs to teach children and families about healthy food, including:
Where food comes from
What it tastes like
How to prepare it
How to share it
During the Project CHEF program, classrooms and communities are transformed into kitchens and students explore the joy of food and cooking, from preparation to clean-up, learning valuable life-skills along the way.
