We are so excited to finally launch our first session of our program: Wá Jẹun. We hope it's the beginning of many more.
The phrase "Wa Jeun" means “come and eat” in Yoruba.
It's an invitation for friends, family, and strangers to share a meal, reflecting a cultural practice of care, connection, and nourishment. As the African proverb says, “One who eats alone can not discuss the taste of the food with others.”
This in person workshop will include hands-on cooking demonstrations where participants learn to prepare culturally relevant African, Black, or Caribbean (ABC) meals using healthier ingredients and techniques without compromising taste or tradition.
Each workshop will feature an interactive session led by a health expert on related topics that disproportionately affect Black communities, such as stress, diabetes, heart disease, and stroke.
