Select the Membership that is Right for You
We seek to answer the question: What can we do together that we cannot do alone?
We offer a range of membership options for everyone: from individuals in the planning stages of setting up a teaching kitchen to organizations wishing to lead with other innovators shaping the future of health and culinary education.
