Helping others help themselves to a healthier future

What is a Calgary's Cooking Community Kitchen?

The concept of a community kitchen is not new. At a Community kitchen, a group of people meet and plan a 14-meal menu based on "specials" advertised in major food store flyers as well as foods available from local wholesalers. The cost to cook the 14-meal menu is determined and divided between the participants based on the numbers of portions each requires. Each participant pays for their share of the food. The Community Kitchen Program shops for the food and delivers it to the local community kitchen. Participants then meet on a specified cooking day to prepare the 14 main course meals and homemade soups for lunches. After preparation is completed, individual family portions are packaged and taken home to be frozen for use over a two-week period.

Spend less time cooking, less time worrying about what's for dinner and save money!

The Community Kitchen Program can help you prepare delicious food for your family at an average cost of $1.85 per person per meal while saving you time and energy. Typically, for a 14 day period you will prepare and take home:

• 4 red meat dishes
• 4 meatless dishes
• 4 poultry dishes
• 2 fish dishes
• homemade soup
