Alex Community Food Centre
The CFC will be a welcoming space that will bring people together to grow, cook, share and advocate for good food in a dignified setting. People will learn cooking and gardening skills, and kids get their hands dirty in both the garden and the kitchen while learning that healthy can be delicious.
Michelle O’Reilly Charcuterie Lab
The Michelle O’Reilly Charcuterie at SAIT (Southern Alberta Institute of Technology) is a state of the art laboratory dedicated to the butchery and culinary programs at SAIT. Using this lab students learn about curing and butchering meats in a setting matched by no other school in Canada.
