USFA HOSTS: Second Annual Culinary Training
https://youtu.be/2SWURBLBcFw?si=tNrmoMLRsSVgJhex
In April, the Urban School Food Alliance convened a group of school food leaders at The Culinary Institute of America’s Texas Campus in San Antonio. During the week-long event, Alliance members participated in sessions led by top culinary trainers, centered on plant-based culinary recipes and skills. In addition to the sessions led by a chef and registered dietitian, the week was rich with best practice sharing and innovation among district staff. The group represented a diverse mix of school nutrition roles and responsibilities, including district chefs, dietitians, kitchen managers, and training staff. By leveraging their unique perspectives and expertise, attendees co-created solutions that not only produced healthy, delicious food for students, but also resulted in production and procurement strategies that center around sustainability, equity, efficiency, and waste reduction. At the end of the week attendees are equipped with the tools needed to return to their districts to train professional adult peers in their districts. We look forward to the continued growth of this program in the coming years.
