Youth prepare meals for Weston locals inside Frontlines kitchen.
Frontlines, a youth charity in Weston, is running a unique program that teaches 18-to-29-year-olds how to cook for community members.
That’s why one Weston-based organization is taking a creative approach to fighting food insecurity by teaching cooking skills to local youth.
Residents in the northwest Toronto neighbourhood struggle with a lack of food. In 2021, over 6,200 people accessed food banks in Toronto’s York South-Weston riding, according to Feed Ontario, the province’s largest collective of hunger-relief organizations.
