Getting Started is an introductory workshop series that is suitable for anyone new to pleasurable food education, or who have new or additional staff to train in their kitchen garden program.

Join the Kitchen Garden Foundation team for two interactive workshops (1 x 60 minutes and 1 x 120 minutes). Participants will receive collections of supporting resources to study in their own time. Please read these prior to the workshop to get the most out of the session times together.
