Free 6-week cooking & nutrition program in Woollahra. Learn new skills, cook healthy meals, and share lunch. Thursdays from 9 July.

Join us for NEST (Nutrition Education & Skills Training), a free, six-week cooking and nutrition program run by OzHarvest.

Each week you’ll cook easy, delicious recipes alongside a small group, pick up practical nutrition skills, and sit down to share the meal you’ve made together. It’s hands-on, relaxed, and genuinely useful — whether you’re a confident cook or you’ve never made anything more adventurous than toast.

 

What you’ll learn

  • How to save money on your weekly food shop
  • How to store food safely and reduce waste
  • How to read and understand food labels
  • How to plan meals for the week ahead
  • How to cook easy, healthy recipes from scratch

 

Who is this for?

Anyone 18+ living in or around the Woollahra Local Government Area who wants to eat better, cook with more confidence, or simply enjoy a social Thursday morning doing something worthwhile. No cooking experience required.

This program is a great fit for:

  • Parents wanting to improve family meal planning
  • Seniors looking for a fun, social weekday activity
  • Cooking enthusiasts curious about nutrition
  • Students studying health, nutrition or food science
  • Anyone new to the area and looking to meet people
