Kitchen garden training snapshots 2017

The Kitchen Garden Foundation’s training team had an incredible time travelling all over Australia to meet educators and deliver our professional development sessions in 2017. 

Our small training team delivered our regular schedule of face-to-face training sessions, as well as special events and customised professional development at locations everywhere – from cities and regional areas to islands and remote communities.

We enjoy our sessions with the kitchen garden community so much that we thought we would share some of our favourite moments from training in 2017. 

Getting lettuce seedlings into the ground at Whitehorse Primary School in wintry Melbourne. 

Fractal broccoli, purple cauliflower and celeriac on Weeden Heights Primary School’s harvest table.

Making okonomiyaki at Mount Margaret Remote Community School in outback Western Australia. 

Having fun rolling out the longest ever sheet of pasta dough at Sunshine North Primary School.

Three mouth-watering salads are just a taste of the shared dishes participants prepare together. 

Crispy Spring Onion Pancakes were popular to make and eat at the training sessions this year!
