This innovative program hosted in 10C’s Nourish Kitchen is made for kids ages 8 to 12 – this 6 week program is designed to get children excited about cooking while integrating sustainable practices and working with healthy local ingredients.
This session will run Saturday mornings from October 18 to November 22 from 10am to 12:30pm for 6 weeks.
Under the guidance of experienced chefs, participants will learn essential skills that will help them to feel comfortable and confident in the kitchen. Each week will focus on key steps and recipes while exploring questions like “where does our food come from?”, “how does our food grow?”, and “what happens to the food we don’t eat?”
The program will incorporate elements of the United Nations’ Sustainable Development Goals and explore how they relate to our current food systems. This includes covering topics like nutrition, food access and security, as well as sustainability. Through reflecting on cooking techniques, habits, and practices, participants will feel empowered to continue their culinary exploration beyond the course and integrate their learnings in their day-to-day life!

The cost to run the program is $500 for each participant. 10C works to find ways to subsidize Super Foodies as we strive to make this program available to everyone who would like to participate. We offer sliding scale payments with a recommendation of $350 for this 6 week program. We always appreciate additional pay-it-forward donations added on to program payments to help make Super Foodies accessible to more kids.
All chefs and class facilitators have been vetted and have their Vulnerable Sector check certificates.
All recipes included in the program are: dairy, nut and gluten-free.
