“Teach a Kid to Cook” (TAKC) classes for Youth and Parents

Have you ever wondered how you can help youth learn how to cook and eat more healthfully?  Have you ever thought about teaching children how to cook?  Are you concerned about the ways we as adults can affect the obesity epidemic? If so, then this class is for you!

Slow Food Pittsburgh Members Rosemarie Perla and Kelsey Weisgerber are committed to teaching the next generation of children the “natural art of cooking”.  They are offering a series of classes for youth ages 8 - 15 years of age and their family members.

Two classes presented simultaneously: one for the adults and one for the youth.  Both classes will teach ways to cut (knife skills) and cook delicious vegetables to make a simple, healthy recipe.  Children and adults will leave with a recipe, increased knowledge and skills as well as a special gift from Marty’s Market.
