Happy Friday! One of the coolest parts of this wee

Happy Friday! One of the coolest parts of this week for us was the kickoff of back to school educator training--and to refresh their skills and practice for the classroom, staffers Celia and Felias led an amazing knife skills demonstration for the whole @vetricommunity team and a few funding partners. On Monday, we gathered to learn all kinds of things about knife safety, food waste, different knife cuts, and strategies for teaching these skills in the classroom. Want to see more from the demo?
