About this Event

New Grocery Movement, Touch Grass Club, and the 4B Harm Reduction Society are teaming up to bring you Community Cooks!

Community Cooks is a mobile program, bringing cooking classes to a kitchen in your community. Each bi-monthly class features a different cultural dish led by diverse community members, from chefs to neighbours. We cook A LOT of food, grabbing a plate to share together and gifting warm meals to community members experiencing food insecurity with the help of our partner, 4B Harm Reduction.


We are excited to announce this Community Cooks class will be led by Joeanne Swampy who will teach us how to prepare Moose stir fry, Saskatoon berry cheesecake, and Muskeg tea.
