The Kitchen Literacy Project

About The Kitchen Literacy Project

The Kitchen Literacy Project is a Syracuse-based nonprofit dedicated to fostering a love of healthy cooking, cultural exchange, and community connection. They offer a diverse range of programs, including free activations at libraries and community centers, as well as in-depth, ticketed classes, dinners, and tastings. Led by Syracuse's passionate health and food community—chefs, home cooks, farmers, food artisans, and healthcare professionals—the project aims to increase food literacy and empower individuals with essential kitchen skills. Revenue from paid events supports their core mission of providing free cooking education to Syracuse City School District teens, cultivating a healthier future for generations of Syracusans. Their programs emphasize basic cooking skills, food knowledge, budgeting, meal planning, and culinary creativity, all within a community-driven environment.
