Teen Iron Chef (TIC)


The Teen Iron Chef program empowers youth to become ambassadors for healthy eating, through hands-on cooking activities. TIC is the flagship program for FamilyCook Productions. This year FamilyCook productions is partnering with TV’s Dr. Oz to bring TIC to over 50 schools across the country.  Spoutwood Farm is the first Farm/CSA to host a Teen Iron Chef program. 

Teen Iron Chef is a seven session program that teaches middle and high school teens how to cook using fresh, healthful ingredients. Each week two teams of teens learn culinary skills, nutrition, team work and leadership as they make (and taste) delicious multicultural recipes and present their finished products in the weekly "food battles."  The kids learn about the county of origin of the recipes and experience new foods and flavors. Ultimately each team researches and creates a recipe to prepare for the “final battle.”  Family and special guests are invited to celebrate with the teams at their final presentations. Spoutwood’s Teen Iron Chefs will go on to lead food demonstrations at Spoutwood events and create garden to table cooking demonstrations during the CSA season. We are also “cooking up” opportunities for Spoutwood Teen Iron Chefs to host other TIC teams in an invitational “cook off.”  

The cost for the seven week program will be no more than $70.00 per teen, to cover the cost of food and materials.  We are working to get sponsorship from local restaurants and food organizations so that we can keep the cost low.
