About the Kitchen
The Heart of Our School
Our kitchen is the heart of our school, where we gather to prepare lunch, make the weekly bread, touch, taste and smell- exploring our senses, ending in a nutritious and satiating communal lunch. Here we offer opportunities for the children to help prep on a weekly basis. Our communal mealtime and food cycle experiences allows the children to appreciate where their food comes from and where their waste goes to.
Virtual Open Kitchen Hours
We also offer Virtual Open Kitchen hours to parents who would like to pop in and say hello, sharing menu ideas, passing a moment together to socialize and offering a platform above all for those who’d like to see the components of our nutrient dense dishes. We hold tasting events for our community, show casing our children's favorites and discussing nutrient content with our dietician, Tamara Duker Freuman. As a registered dietitian (RD) with a master's degree in Clinical Nutrition, Tamara is our go- to for expert advice on nutrient content and topics surrounding 'choosy eaters.'
