About this Event
Join us at the Bounceback Food Community Kitchen & take part in a practical carrot-themed cookery workshop, in honour of National Carrot Day!
This cookery workshop will include a carrot recipe & also cover fermentation. The workshop is part of Altrincham BID's plan to raise awareness of the lesser known Altrincham Heritage Carrot in 2026!
Fun and family friendly!
The Cooking with Carrots workshop will be led by a member of our Community Cookery School team. Our Community Kitchen will be open as normal with a full range of hot & cold drinks, sweet treats and delicious brunch/lunch options for you to enjoy before, during and after the workshop.
The workshop has kindly been funded by Altrincham BID who produce Visit Altrincham (https://visitaltrincham.com). There is a small charge for the workshop ticket to ensure we have full attendance on the day.
Who are we?
Bounceback Food CIC is a social enterprise fighting food poverty on multiple fronts. Our Community Cookery School teams teach people how to cook, run food bank drives at market events, help people get jobs in the food sector and coordinate community meal drives that provide emergency meals for our beneficiaries.
Since 2014 we have taught 10,000+ people how to cook, including stroke survivors, young carers, food bank beneficiaries and elderly people living in sheltered accommodation. We have also secured 25,000+ donations to food banks and generated over 350,000 meals for people in need via our catering, community meal drives and cookery workshops.
Our Community Kitchen on Central Way in Altrincham opened on July 1st 2023. The 'buy one, give one' lunch menu supports our meal distribution efforts to 15 food banks and sheltered accommodation sites across Manchester.
