Culinary Education

for a Better Food Future

Farm to Culinary Classroom (F2CC) provides curriculum and resources for teachers in the field of Family & Consumer sciences so that they can empower students to make healthier choices and advocate for a food system that supports their community and our planet.

F2CC curates, filters, and organizes content designed specifically for a high school culinary classroom. Our turnkey curriculum includes a semester-long course as well as shorter units, that provides content in the fields of regenerative agriculture, food culture, food justice, and climate change.

Together, we can cultivate a shared commitment to a food system that is accessible & affordable to all.
