Attention Parents: Our Community Schools program is offering a 6-week cooking series led by Cornell Coopertive Extension. The classes will be held off campus in the kitchen of St. Patrick's Church. Participants will learn from a nutritional lesson and then meal prep a crockpot meal to take home and serve to your family. Any families who do not have crockpots will be gifted a FREE crockpot. All of the ingredients and supplies for each class will be provided as well.
