Youth Culinary Education

Thank you for your interest in the Stargazer's Youth Culinary Program! We are committed to providing culinary classes focused on science, technology, engineering and mathematics better known as S.T.E.M. Through our program, youth gain hands-on skills and take-home groceries to recreate meals with their families to bring families "back to the table."This strengthens family connection, promotes healthier eating in food deserts, supports mental wellness, and introduces potential career pathways. In addition to basic culinary skills and techniques during these 2-hour, multi-week sessions, students learn the nutritional value of foods, create recipes and prepare meals that are eaten at the end of class. After completion (must be mastery in various areas) of each level, scholars will become “Junior Chefs” for future classes and paid a stipend to help instruct new students.
