Thank you to the Emmy Award–winning team at Docufilms for capturing so beautifully the work and impact of Cooking with Kids.
With stories from founder Lynn Walters, board and program leadership, and individuals whose lives have been touched by the program, this film highlights 30 years of Cooking with Kids and shows how hands-on food education has shaped healthier futures, inspired confidence, and built community across generations. Together, we will continue for generations to come.
You can keep kids in northern New Mexico learning, cooking, and thriving! For 30 years, Cooking with Kids has brought hands-on nutrition education to classrooms—but with childhood hunger among the highest in the nation and recent federal funding cuts, your support matters more than ever.
Cooking with Kids educates and empowers children and families to make healthy food choices through hands-on learning with fresh, affordable foods.
Founded in 1995, Cooking with Kids has nurtured generations of students through rich and unique nutrition education in public schools.
You can help us continue for years to come.
Hands-on learning with food is at the heart of everything we do.
