Healthy Communities - Ongoing, In-community Pop-up Training
Healthy Food Garden-to-Table Training and Demonstrations
Community gardening to facilitate hands-on demonstrations and education for early childhood and seniors of the designated communities. Indoor-outdoor, weather-protected, multi-use space will also support our “Boot Camp”-type programs specializing in residential healthy food growth, production and preparation, live/live-streamed kitchen demonstrations, health and wellness initiatives, advanced research in easy-to-apply sustainable technologies including cooking with small and large solar ovens.
Urban Gardening
Brief demonstrations can teach wellness, and nutrition by incorporating access to healthy herbs and vegetables by growing food in vertical gardening systems in an urban environment on porches, patios, apartment balconies, backyards, rooftops, etc.
Food Nurition and Preparation
Our approach is to introduce innovative ways to grow crops through research and training through programs that will offer skills development workshops on entrepreneurship, urban food production, master gardening, food preparation, healthy eating habits, obesity and diabetes prevention, exercise, food safety, and sanitation certification.
Business and Commercial Kitchens
Our partnership with Universal Prime Energy enables us to include a community-specific onsite commercial kitchen that will also link support for in-community urban food production and food processing to provide residents and businesses with effective food demonstrations, nutritional education, food service handling, and preparation and food service certifications.
