Relocalizing VT: Training Gleaning Chefs

Past event
Mar 3, 2022, 9 to 10:30 AM

Coming up Thursday on Central Vermont Community Radio - If the US and Europe were less committed to fossil fuels, the countries would be better positioned to support Ukraine. Plus, Vermont is getting a flow of new chefs educated right here in how to turn food that would otherwise be wasted into good meals.

9:00 - 10:00 am
Energy analyst Ramez Naam tweeted this week, "Biden should propose a US energy bill as a pro-Ukraine, anti-Russia measure. Take the energy components of Build Back Better. They reduce US demand for both oil and natural gas, which hurts Putin." We'll look at why going renewable in Vermont hurts autocrats and oligarchs around the world.

The Community Kitchen Academy has been training people in kitchen skills and career readiness and helping find them jobs, with a focus on using food that would otherwise go to waste. The program in Barre is looking for people who want to start a career as a chef; the next seven-week training program starts in mid-March. Capstone Community Action's senior chef instructor Joey Buttendorf will talk about the training and where you might find food fixed by graduates of the program.

10:00 - 10:30 am
Resilience Thoughts, a locally told Extempo story, and more.
