Sustainable Solano offers healthy cooking workshops around the county that share ways to cook with fresh, seasonal produce.

One of those programs is “What’s For Dinner?”— healthy cooking workshops aiming to educate the community on healthy, nutritious food choices using seasonal ingredients. “What’s For Dinner?” classes take place at John F. Kennedy Library (505 Santa Clara St.) in downtown Vallejo, and are done in partnership with Solano County Library, The Friends of the Vallejo Public Library, Sustainable Solano and UR what U eat. This series is taught by Chef Lisa Núñez-Hancock, a culinary arts instructor, natural food chef, food activist and a member of Sustainable Solano’s Local Food Movement Advisory Board.
