Founder's Note
Life is hard enough.
Food shouldn't be.
Teaching can be hard. Parenting can be hard. Student-ing can be hard.
A hot plate of healthy, hassle free, brain rejuvenating, nutrient packed food can be everything.
Beautifully cooked tri tip can turn an angry mob back into productive teachers and students.
I've seen it happen .
A healthy refreshing salad and an overloaded employee can suddenly handle another onslaught.
A warm coffee and an egg sandwich can switch a carpooling parent from road rage to forgiving empathy.
Homemade beef jerky can help even the most talkative student take a few seconds to recenter.
Share it with a community... and suddenly there is a community to share it with.
Food is amazing.
Food has deep deeeeeeeeeep evolutionary traces in us silly humans.
Life. Death.
Safety. Health. Empathy.
Community. Family.
When life gets rough for teachers, we frequently break bread together.
It helps. Family supports each other.
Teaching can be hard. Food makes it a bit better.
My time interacting with the Education has confirmed something beyond all reasonable doubt.
Something wonderful.
Education is hiding some unbelievably talented Chefs.
Teachers, Admin/Mangagment, Parents, Students.
Weirdly most of them eat. Sure.
But some of 'em are reaaaaaaallly good at it.
Like.... REALLY good.
Food is important.
Brains need nutrients. (Teacher's brains too!!)
Food is the fuel for learning and growing.
Better food -> Better Brains
But it is more than that.
Sharing a meal is a reminder that we're all in this together.
Good food has a way of doing that.
But give us FANTASTIC food??
You are family.
I founded EduChefs to formally create and extend that family.
Welcome to the family!!
Let me know how I can make your day better :)
