Adult Learning Events

Food & Finance begins Thursday, November 2, from 10 - 12, and runs once a week for 5 weeks, wrapping up on November 30. This 5 part online program focuses on two aspects of life that many of us struggle with: financial literacy and food security. Food security will look at local available resources and how to make the most of them. Menu planning, shopping strategies, food handling and safety, understanding food labeling will be investigated and information sharing will be encouraged. The money management component will cover the basics of spending, banking, borrowing and saving in a series of hands-on lessons. Access to online Safe Food Handlers certification will be provided, improving both personal health and safety and employability, and a completion bonus is available.
