On episode 10 of We Form The Future, we hear from Chef and food educator Lachelle Cunningham.
Chef Lachelle gives us a tour Saint Paul’s Frogtown Farms, which is a public park, non-profit and one of the largest urban farms in the country. Among many things, Chef Lachelle is currently running the Natural Roots at Frogtown Farms program, where she teaches community to enhance their nutritional healing and home remedies through nature. Using plants for healing is a way to be proactive, and preventative. You’ll hear all about the farm, and Chef Lachelle will tell us what plants we can use in our very own backyard for different herbal remedies and healing.
Chef Lachelle is a dynamic force on the Twin Cities’ food scene known for cooking globally inspired comfort food that thwarts unhealthy stereotypes and fuses in global flavors. She began her culinary career by launching Chelles’ Kitchen catering in 2012. She soon became known for her work as the founding Executive Chef of Breaking Bread Cafe in North Minneapolis, where she received many accolades for her food creativity and social justice work. In 2018, Chef Lachelle began building The Healthy Root Institute, with a mission focused on healing and social justice through food education, culinary arts and entrepreneurship. Through the Healthy Root Institute, Chef Lachelle curates cooking workshops and retreats, teaches culinary arts, and food business classes.
