CAFÉ is pleased to announce a first-ever educators’ event on sustainability.  Highlights will include re-designing your menus “better for you”, a visit to the Chicago Market, discussions on best practices, a surprise mystery basket competition, the Kendall College’s wood-fired oven, and much more!

Save the dates of July 15-17, 2011.  This event will be hosted by the national leader in sustainability practices for education, Kendall College, featuring presentations by experts in the field along with Chris Koetke and Renee Zonka.

Breaking News!

The celebrated Graham Kerr will be one of the keynoters at the 7th annual CAFÉ Leadership Conference.  If you haven’t seen his presentation on healthy foods, you are in for a treat!  His passion and knowledge and his work with schools is awe-inspiring and we are fortunate to have him join us at our host school, Johnson & Wales University, next June

Interesting Websites

Ever on the lookout for websites that offer you resources for the classroom, CAFÉ has found two interesting recommendations for teachers and trainers at all levels:

• www.thesoyfoodscouncil.com has short videos, a Soyfoods 101 curriculum in both English and Spanish, resources for your classrooms, recipes, and classroom exercises.
• www.ultimatedecadence.com, home to Continental Mills’ line of Ghiradelli Bake Mixes, has information on its contest, “Send Us Your Masterpiece.”  Contestants will be judged on originality, visual presentation, ease of preparation and appeal.  Award winners receive $500 and will be featured on the website.  The contest is ongoing and winners will be announced quarterly.
