For more than thirty years, Sacramento Natural Foods Co-op has continued its tradition of consumer advocacy, education, community outreach and support in the greater Sacramento area. Through programs, projects and activities developed by dedicated staff and Co-op owners, the Co-op serves the greater Sacramento community by providing services to consumers in our store (such as food tasting fairs, product demos and consumer literature), offering classes, seminars and special events at our Co-op Community Learning Center, participating in community events, and making donations to local non-profit organizations.

Outreach to WIND Youth Services

June 10, 2010

Every quarter the Co-op provides a free hands on cooking class to a local community service organization in our Community Learning Center & Cooking School.  The class includes hands on instruction, simple seasonal approaches to feeding the whole family, menu planning, recipes, nutrition, money saving strategies and concludes with a tour of the Co-op and all it has to offer.    

In June the Co-op held a cooking class for WIND Youth Services.  In previous quarters, we have provided cooking classes for the Sacramento Food Bank & Family Services, Wellspring Women’s Center, Sacramento Regional Conservation Corp, Birthing Project and the Sacramento Area Emergency Housing Center.
