CHS Culinary Students at work

🌱 Exciting Update from our Cordell Secondary Family and Consumer Science (FCS) Program! 🌿 Thanks to an ODCTE grant funded by the Oklahoma Lottery, our Aerogarden Grow Garden is thriving with various lettuce varieties, and we're branching out to tomatoes, peppers, and herbs.

šŸ‘©ā€šŸ³ But that's not all – in the attached photos, you'll see the proud moment when CHS Culinary students harvested their first lettuce crop! šŸ„—šŸŒæ Our budding chefs dove into culinary creativity, trying three different dressings for our salads. While tasty, we believe the best recipes come from you!

šŸ„— Have a favorite salad dressing recipe? Share the love below! šŸ‘‡ We're on the lookout for new and delicious ideas to try with our next harvest. Let's make our salads even more extraordinary together!

🌱 In addition to the Aerogarden success, we've enhanced our kitchen with 3 Kitchenaid mixers, various attachments, safety kits, knife skills practice kits, and food safety kits – all thanks to the ODCTE grant.

🌱 Our Juice Plus Tower Garden is set to welcome the thriving plants next week, and we've also invested in a freeze dryer and preservation supplies to master the art of preserving the goodness we grow. šŸ„¦šŸ“

🌱 All of this is made possible by the ODCTE grant, supporting Cordell Secondary's commitment to hands-on education, sustainable living, and community collaboration.
