Food Storytelling

Students learn from grandparents in a real world setting and have the opportunity to apply these concepts to their daily lives.

Grandparents offer skills through storytelling & heritage cooking and students can offer skills needed by seniors such as multimedia tasks.

Knowing that the stories will carry over to the next generation, there will be a sense of purpose and fulfillment. The connection between grandparent and child can continue to grow after Covid loss.

Restoring recipes and stories of the past and paving a way for future sustainability.

A program that is hands-on and multi-generational builds language skills and "soft skills" such as teamwork.

Students who participate in programs such as these increase their independence skills in cooking and taking care of themselves.
