RyZe Kitchen
At the RyZe Kitchen, we serve communities of all ages in a variety of ways. From our nutrition-based cooking programs, health education classes, and community gardens, we feed our neighbors through food, creativity, and innovation.
What is the RyZe Kitchen?
The RyZe Kitchen is the culinary sector of the Aspire House hub, a community resource to learn, grow, and innovate. With health and wellness at our core, we welcome palatable creativity and encourage visionary exploration into food as medicine.
Food is Fuel
As a center for education and well-balanced diets, the RyZe Kitchen offers a variety of nutrition-based programs. Junior Chef and Junior Pastry Chef classes provide a safe space for youth to harness their creative potential and share their culinary masterpieces with their families. Our senior programs offer a space to learn about diabetes, hypertension, and heart health.
