COMMUNITY CHEF TRAINING

Thank you for your interest in the Community Chef Program.  The Community Food Education Program will not be accepting applications for new community chefs in 2013.

Our Community Chef Training program teaches community members how to facilitate workshops about local, seasonal eating and cooking; basic nutrition; fruit and vegetable identification; recipe selection and creation; knife skills; and food storage and preparation.

Our Community Chefs inspire and empower New Yorkers to create delicious and healthy meals for themselves and their families. After completing the three-day training, Community Chefs conduct cooking demonstration workshops from June to November at City Farms Farmers' Markets. They also occasionally provide demonstrations at health fairs, schools, and community events.
