About this service
The Basic Shelf program is a series of workshops over 8-12 weeks. With a small group of attendees, participants are taught how to cook and shop for food on a limited budget. The program is based on the strategy of keeping a 'basic shelf' of ingredients full in your home, with which you learn how to create a variety of meals that are nutritious and affordable. Whenever you've used an item from your basic shelf, you know to replenish it at your next round of groceries.
The program is comprised of 8-12 weekly workshops for a small group of attendees. A facilitator leads the program, ensuring each workshop is educational and informative.
Child care for participants is provided on site, at the Kottage.
A basic shelf food hamper is provided that contains basic cooking ingredients, most of which can be kept for a long time without refrigeration. (One basic shelf costs approximately $300.00).
