Convivium Urban Farmstead's mission is to "improve lives through food." As part of our mission, we provide access and education about healthy food choices to children and others who are struggling with food access and the adverse health effects of eating a diet of highly processed food. Our adult, family, and youth cooking and nutrition education classes are designed to expose people to real, fresh foods; provide the knowledge of where our food comes from and the importance of healthy choices; and teach the skills of how to prepare simple recipes using fresh ingredients. Volunteer instructors will lead such classes. Curriculum is provided. Instructors should have experience cooking and baking. Formal experience teaching or leading groups would be beneficial. Instructors must attend an orientation/training.
The first step in joining us in fulfilling our mission is filling out a volunteer application found here.
