Sugar-snap peas are up and growing in the JW Cooks garden! All they needed was the encouragement of a warm day…Peas were planted by student chefs of JW Cooks, under the direction of Priscilla Hayes, garden educator, and Janet Gaudino, 8th-grade science teacher and assistant in the food literacy program.
JW COOKS! Thanks to discounts on equipment from the good people at Ace Hardware – George Smith, owner, and Kelly Babbitt, manager – students participating in the seed-to-table food literacy program after school at JW will be using state-of-the-art pressure cookers!
BACKYARD CHARD: JW Iron Chefs prepare to cut fresh chard for inclusion in their kugel dishes.
INTO THE OVEN: After students combine cooked noodles with sour cream and produce from JW edible gardens and from McCaffrey’s Supermarkets, the mixture is baked until golden brown on top.
