TEEN BATTLE CHEFS

Stirring up change this summer!

TBC

The Teen Battle Chef program empowers youth to become ambassadors for healthy eating, through hands-on cooking activities.

Teen Battle Chef is an eight session program that teaches teens and “tweens” how to cook using fresh,healthful ingredients. Each session two teams of young chefs learn culinary skills, nutrition, team work and leadership as they make (and taste) delicious multicultural recipes and present their finished products in the weekly "food battles." The chefs learn about the county of origin of the recipes and experience new foods and flavors. Ultimately each team researches and creates a recipe to prepare for the “final battle.” Family and special guests are invited to celebrate with the teams at their final presentations.

Graduates of the program can go on to become CHEFS (Culinary Health Educators from Spoutwood), leading healthy food demonstrations at community events, schools, health fairs, farmers markets and at Spoutwood Farm events and festivals

Our summer TBC program will be held Monday-Thursday

July 8, 9, 10, 11, 15, 16, 17, 18

Spoutwood Farm
