What is Recipe for a Healthy Family?
Recipe for a Healthy Family is a program consisting of 8 free classes on Saturday afternoons that will help your family create the healthy lifestyle you want! Classes are free to families in Tucson and Pima County.
What will your family do each Saturday?
Your kids favorite part of each Saturday will be the hands-on cooking classes led by local chefs!
Community experts will also teach your family about nutrition, how to incorporate more exercise into your day, and give you great ideas for managing stress in even the littlest people in your family.
Classes for the spring of 2020 will be Saturday afternoons in January, February, April and May. Classes are from 1 pm until about 3:30 pm. See our calendar below for dates and more information.
You are not required to attend all the classes, but we encourage you to attend as many as you can so you can create a great recipe for health for your family.
Classes are free to any families in Tucson!
We welcome any families in Tucson and Pima County. Our programming focuses on children age 5 and over. Younger siblings are welcome; however parents are responsible for them as we aren't able to offer daycare.
