Sharing is caring!
The Greater Wichita YMCA offers free Cooking Matters classes for parents or caregivers, and you don’t have to be a YMCA member to participate!
In the Cooking Matters class for parents or caregivers, you’ll enjoy a hands-on experience that teaches meal planning, budgeting, and smart grocery shopping for healthy, affordable meals. A guided grocery store tour will help you learn how to stretch your food budget while making nutritious choices for your family. Plus, every participant receives free take-home groceries to put their new skills into practice! Best of all, free child care is available during the class, so you can focus on learning without worry. This is a fantastic opportunity to gain confidence in the kitchen, save money, and prepare healthy meals your whole family will love!
