From Quebec, With Love (and Poutine) Food Inspired by my Summer Vacation

At Cooking in Bloom, we believe that food does more than nourish our bodies—it connects us to one another and to something greater. Around the world and across faith traditions, food plays a powerful role in celebration, reflection, and community.

Come learn family friendly ways to cook and learn together! We will cook a nutritious recipe and share stories and open reflections on how we use food to remember, give thanks, and come together.
