Our Story

Our Story. Growing Chefs was founded in 2005 as a way to connect people to food, from the soil to the kitchen. By offering educational programming in farming, gardening, and with simple recipes using seasonal ingredients, Growing Chefs stays true to its simple philosophy: broccoli is not boring!

Our Work. From farm-based education to cooking workshops, Growing Chefs offers a wide range of programming and partnerships. 

Our Team. Our educators are nutritionists, green thumbs, and culinary experts with a passion for produce, a well-cooked meal, and the importance of freshly grown food. 

Growing Chefs is fiscally sponsored by Open Space Institute.
