Our students learn how to garden in the urban landscape and make simple dishes for their families using homegrown and easily accessible ingredients. In almost every class, students will eat their own homemade, homegrown food and go home with food and essential life skills to share with their community.

Our Equitable Entrepreneurship program empowers middle school and high school students to become changemakers through hands-on learning in leadership, business strategy, and organizational design. Grounded in equity and inclusion, this program equips young innovators with the tools to turn their ideas into ventures that make a difference. Participants develop real-world skills—like pitching, project planning, and team-building—while exploring how business can be a force for good. Whether launching a social enterprise or reimagining existing systems, students leave with the confidence and mindset to lead boldly and build with impact.

In The Science of Cooking, kids and teens become culinary scientists, exploring the delicious intersection of STEM and food. Through hands-on experiments and tasty recipes, students uncover the chemistry, physics, and biology behind everyday cooking—like how heat changes proteins, why bread rises, or what makes pickles pop. Along the way, they'll build critical thinking, teamwork, and problem-solving skills, all while gaining confidence in the kitchen. This class is perfect for curious minds who love to tinker, taste, and learn by doing.
