Programs

Kids' Test Kitchen builds food confidence through hands-on cooking experiences that inspire curiosity, develop practical life skills, and empower participants to discover they're capable of more than they thought. Each class is filled with chopping, measuring, mixing, creating—and, if participants choose, tasting. Participation is always encouraged. Tasting is always a choice. Participants don't just learn recipes. They build independence, teamwork, problem-solving skills, patience, and confidence that extends well beyond the kitchen.
Every participant receives a recipe card and either the featured ingredient or a sample of the finished recipe to continue the experience at home. We're often told participants leave class excited about the foods they've prepared, eager to recreate recipes, and more willing to explore new, nourishing foods. Each Kids' Test Kitchen series features new recipes built around fresh, whole foods and evidence-informed nutrition education developed by Registered
Dietitians.
