Cooking Out of the Box

The Cooking out of the Box program uses a monthly Good Food Box of fruits and vegetables as the foundation of a nutritious cooking session for low income individuals. The program is free to participants and encourages the use of fresh fruits and vegetables in a healthy diet. At each 2 hour session, 3 to 4 recipes are prepared using the contents of the Good Food Box, which varies from month to month. The Community Kitchens facilitator chooses the recipes, purchases a Good Food Box for each location and the extra food needed to prepare the recipes. The sessions end with a shared meal, group discussion and clean up. Participants receive copies of the recipes and extra food is divided among the clients to take home.
