Public Cooking Classes
Heal your Body, Protect the Planet!
Did you know?
- The United Nations climate report states that animal food production is the single greatest cause of global warming, more than all forms of transportation combined.
- There are thousands of international studies showing the diseases of our time–heart disease, cancer, and diabetes–are almost completely preventable by eating more plant foods and less animal foods.
These demonstration-style classes are limited in number of participants to insure personalized instruction and ample opportunity for questions and lively, interactive discussion. Meredith provides participants with the complete meal, all the recipes, and the latest diet and health news. The healing qualities of each food are discussed.
