Culinary Wellness Action Team

We’re developing innovative training, especially for underrepresented communities, that combines advanced culinary skills with herbal and natural wellness practices, emphasizing local sourcing. Our aim is to empower participants with unique skills, enhancing their competitiveness in both the culinary and wellness fields, as we develop a new curriculum, run hands-on workshops, strengthen partnerships, and create solid career pathways.
