The Cookbook Project

I had the opportunity while I was in Sadhana Forest to meet an amazing couple doing great work.  Their names are Alissa and Adam.  They have a really amazing story which you can be read about below, in how they started doing the work that they currently do.

Basically they both came to the conclusion that something needed to be done about this growing culture of disconnectedness from our food.

They developed beautifully empowering programs for kids and adult alike, to reconnect to their favorite recipes in a fun, healthy and lighthearted way.

They travel the globe holding kid's workshops and teaching educators how to carry on the movement in their local areas through incorporating children in the food scene while making it interesting and inspiring for them.

A few of the values they teach:
Healthy eating through whole grains, whole foods, increased consumption of fruits and vegetables, reduced consumption of cholesterol foods - animal protein.  Local and organic. Recycling and composting.

I have actually just started their online local leadership program.

So far its very well put together and wholesome, they have developed many inspiring activities for kids.

So, we will see how it all works out :)
