Cooking UP Confidence!

COOKING UP CONFIDENCE!

The purpose of these classes are to help participants gain confidence in their own kitchen and to give them the skills needed to create healthy, delicious meals. We have heard from the community that cooking and nutrition skills are a vital part of individuals being able to make the healthy choice the easy choice. Preparing more healthy meals at home will help people increase their fruit and vegetable consumption and spend less money on eating out.

The cost is $80 which includes 4 bimonthly FoodShare boxes, 4 cooking classes, recipes, healthy tips & tricks, and dinner!
Forms of payment accepted: SNAP/EBT (would be $20 total for SNAP/EBT), CASH, or CREDIT CARD, but the registrant will need to sign up with Ruth’s Gleanings and communicate how the box should be picked up for class.
