About this Course
Support local producers, be mindful of where your food comes from
You will find the tools to help you cook more sustainably and to shrink your carbon footprint.
Nature’s bounty is so rich—over 30,000 edible plants are available on Earth. However, we rely on about 30 of them—and 3 crops alone provide humanity with nearly 60% of our calories: rice, wheat, and corn. We’ve been missing out and it’s time to incorporate more plants in our lives.
At the end of this course you will be able to:
– Make pulses, vegetables, fruits, nuts, seeds, fungi, and algae the star of your dishes.
– Diversify your culinary palette with over 30,000+ varieties of edible plants available
– Avoid food waste by consuming plants from root to leaf.
– To celebrate local and seasonal foods, learn to adjust and swap out ingredients.
– Highlight nutritional quality of local and seasonal.
Join our community to help deliver a better food future for all.

What you'll learn
Discover the nutritional richness that comes with “eating the rainbow.” The types of food we consume and when and where they’re grown ultimately determine the sustainability of our diets!
You will learn about the importance of minimizing food waste in our kitchens as well as the ways to utilize the ingredients that traditionally end up in the trash.
Whether you are an omnivore, flexitarian, vegetarian, or plant-based, you will absolutely love the dishes showcased on this course.
Instead of focusing on the foods we must give up to help be part of the solution, why not place the emphasis on the plethora of delicious, colorful, and diverse ingredients we get to incorporate into our dishes.
Who is it for?
This course is specially designed for environmental conscious chefs and amateur cooks seeking to cook more sustainably. People interested in promoting biodiversity and better food systems will find meaningful ways to help combat climate change and food insecurity from their own kitchens.

Not a vegetarian but love clean eating occasionally.
I love some of the ingredients used in some of the dishes and I am willing to try some of the other ingredients that I didn't know existed, so I will start to use these dishes in my occasional menu at home and at work with my growing customers which like to try different things.
