The Pink Rhubarb Summer Workshops for Kids - Weeks TBD

About Jane & The Pink Rhubarb:

The Pink Rhubarb believes in cultivating, growing and maintaining skills in cooking, gardening and craft. We offer resources featuring many different artists and makers who help to provide and promote healthy, creative living. Classes, camps and workshops are offered for all ages and feature a variety of topics from container gardening, cooking and nutrition, to sustainable living and simple crafts. Here we celebrate the people, resources and ideas that help grow food, make food and teach us the art of using our hands.

My name is Jane Mossa and I am the director and founder of the Pink Rhubarb. It has been my dream to teach cooking, gardening and the art of craft and I am pleased to share ideas and inspiration. Garden to plate is about teaching future generations how to enjoy using their hands, either in the kitchen, garden or at the table. It is a skill that will be utilized and shared for a lifetime. We hope you can join us for a class, have an event with us, in the garden or at the table, or simply make one of our recipes or crafts.

I started the Pink Rhubarb after many years of cooking professionally for corporations as executive chef on yachts, to owning my own catering company. After having my own children, I became more passionate about teaching children and noticed there really wasn’t any way kids could earn how to cook. Most culinary programs within schools were being replaced by computer classes and hand building arts such as cooking, crafting or gardening was becoming obsolete.

My favorite part about what the Pink Rhubarb does is to excite a child about learning and to see the curiosity they have while in the kitchen or garden. I love how we provide opportunities for independence and creative learning while teaching adults and children how working with their hands are essential life skill that is enjoyable to explore together.
