Kids and parents learn new techniques in community cooking class

CAROLYn DIMOnD is passing on her passion for food to a new generation.

The former Dublin City Schools family and consumer science teacher is offering community cooking classes for kids and their parents, showing them how to make eating a healthful habit. Dimond’s Kitchen Family Fun class is part of the school district’s Community Education program.

“My main goal is to get families and kids involved in the kitchen while eating healthy foods,” Dimond says. “There are ways to incorporate healthy foods into what kids eat as they get older. It helps to promote a healthier lifestyle.”

Dimond started teaching community cooking classes three years ago when the teachers at her school were asked if they had hobbies they would like to teach to the community. Always passionate about cooking, Dimond agreed to share her skills.
