Due to generous donations that have come in through December and into January we're currently unable to accept clothing donations. Our volunteers need the time and space to sort everything that has come in already.
We'll be resuming accepting clothing donations in February. Thank you for your generosity!! Twice a month Chef Yves puts on a collective kitchen. This is a hands on cooking experience and at the end you get to go home with 6-8 portions of what was made!
This month is Asian style dumplings - perfect for potstickers or wonton soup. Come and learn how to make pork, chicken and vegetarian dumplings and then take some home with you! Tuesday January 15th - 6:00pm Thursday January 17th - 12:30pm Collective kitchens are free for our clients and $15 donation for the community. Spaces are limited so please contact kitchen@greenervillage.org to book your space. Today's cooking demo is on braising and Chef Yves is going to show how to braise meats (with a one pot Italian braised Chicken) and vegetables (with braised Brussels Sprouts), The demo starts at 12:30 and finishes around 1pm. Free for clients and by donation to support our learning kitchen programs for the general public.
We are excited to announce our latest offering from the Learning kitchen, Tasty Tuesdays! Come in Tuesday January 8th from 11 to 1 for a bowl of Wonton soup and some Pot stickers. Eat in or bring your own bowl and we can hook you up with Take out!
This is a free-will donation lunch open to all members of the community, so pay what you can. Each Tasty Tuesday will support different programs here at Greener Village. This week we are collecting in support of our cooking class initiatives. This is something we would like to host a few time a month, so come out and fill your tummies on Tuesday and help Support The Greener Village. Keep an eye out for more Tasty Tuesday to come! Global News came and did a story on the cooking classes in our Learning Kitchen.
https://globalnews.ca/news/4812808/food-bank-cooking-class/ Every month we have three cooking classes/demos, two collective kitchens and one family class. The monthly schedule can be found here. All classes and the collective kitchen are free to our clients. Classes are by donation to the public and the collective kitchen is $15 for the public. The classes are quick 1/2 hour instruction demos done over lunch hour (12:30-1pm). The collective kitchens are longer (90 minutes) and hands on with each participant taking home 8-10 portions of what was made together. |
