Real-world Food System Knowledge
Through hands-on, project-based curriculum, students explore where food comes from, how it affects their health, and their role in creating a more just food system. Connected Chef partners with educators to spark curiosity, critical thinking, and community connection.

Virtual and In-Person Programs
We offer hands-on programs—virtual and in-person—that explore food justice, climate change, and community action.
Partnering with schools and learning centers, we design custom experiences that build environmental literacy, civic engagement, and a deeper understanding of equity and sustainability.
Summer Camps
Bring your summer program to life with a field trip to The Connected Chef!
Our green space turns into a living classroom where campers explore sustainability and food justice through fun, hands-on activities—like worm composting and worm races!
Each visit is tailored to your group, blending education, movement, and joy in the great outdoors.
Juice N’ Play
Planning a community event or block party? Bring in Juice N’ Play!
Created with Queensbridge leader Suga Ray, this interactive experience combines fresh juice demos, nutrition education, and playful activities—making wellness and food justice fun and accessible for all ages.

“We cannot free ourselves until we feed ourselves.”
