We are excited to confirm that we are launching our very own FREE cooking and food literacy program, Cook. Connect. Share., with our first program starting in early May 2026.
Cook. Connect. Share. is a free, hands-on program designed to help people build confidence cooking healthy, affordable meals using ingredients commonly available through the Geelong Foodshare Social Supermarket. Across five weekly sessions, participants cook together, learn practical food and nutrition skills, and share meals in a supportive group setting.
The program focuses on dignity, confidence, and connection, alongside practical skills that support long term food security.

Our programs run for 2.5 hours once a week over five consecutive weeks and are delivered by an experienced Chef, supported by our partner, Holiday Inn and Suites. Thank you for your support in helping us provide practical life skills that strengthen our community and local food systems.
