An inspiring—and delicious—experience unfolded at St. Thomas Aquinas High School during our Indigenous Cooking Class for Women in Trades, sponsored by OYAP.
Participants had the unique opportunity to learn from Head Chef Brad King of Cottage Time, who generously shared his culinary expertise, knowledge of Indigenous foods, and personal journey to becoming a chef. From traditional ingredients to modern techniques, the session offered a rich blend of culture, storytelling, and hands-on learning in the kitchen.
The event not only highlighted the importance of culinary arts in Indigenous culture but also empowered participants to explore the trades through a meaningful and engaging lens.
A heartfelt thank you to Chef Brad King for leading such an impactful session, and to OYAP for making this opportunity possible.
