The Employable Cooking Guru

The Employable Cooking Guru (ECG) program was designed to help learners with employability, education, kitchen skills and food security. RCLN partnered with the Department of Community Services, Nova Scotia Works, Richmond River Roots, different gardens in Richmond County and Foodland in St Peters. The ECG program ended with the celebration of the learners including the presentation of program certificates, prizes, and a meal.

We are very optimistic that learners have acquired better kitchen skills and a deeper understanding of meal planning and budgeting as a result of the program.
