Snacks are a crucial part of any school day (or workday for that matter) because they can help curb feelings of hunger in between meals, provide additional nutrients, and can contribute to providing energy for an active lifestyle.

Amp up the flavor of your snacks with our homemade 'Rad Ranch' seasoning which can be sprinkled on popcorn or crunchy roasted chickpeas. You'll have a filling, nutritious, and (most importantly) flavorful snack ready in minutes. Happy snacking! 🍿

We are so thrilled to announce that we raised over

We are so thrilled to announce that we raised over $38,000 for our Back to the Future fundraising efforts, exceeding our goal of $25,000 to help support our physical return to school. For the first time in nearly 18 months, we're thrilled to be able to bring our hands-on culinary and nutrition education physically back to the classroom. Thank you to all who supported this effort!

An extra special thanks is also due to the @zekauskasfamily, who gave us a generous grant to support our technology and staffing needs for Vetri Cooking Lab for the upcoming school year. The Zekauskus Family Foundation is dedicated to educating students, families, and communities, especially the underserved, on producing, preparing, and eating healthy foods, and to supporting organizations focused on hunger relief and careers in the culinary arts.

Thank you for helping us get back on the road, back to schools, and back in person!
