Culinary School of the Rockies Raises New Crop of Chefs |
|
Monday, 21 July 2008 |
|
 This week, a new crop of culinary students begins a six-month educational journey learning to guide our nation’s restaurant, grocery, retailer and hospitality industries in the timely shift toward growing, eating and purchasing local and sustainable foods. Culinary School of the Rockies (CSR) is pioneering a natural path for future chefs craving an unprecedented farm-to-table education through the launch of its Farm to Table Externship.
Students spend the first nine weeks of the course in the classroom at CSR. Then, on Sept. 8, the off-campus Externship takes them to work on farms and ranches in Colorado’s breathtaking North Fork Valley (near Aspen) and in Boulder County. Students will learn firsthand how to source local ingredients from farmers, growers and producers, and the farming experience is topped off by an apprenticeship with acclaimed “locavore” Colorado chefs. Culinary School of the Rockies began developing the program two years ago as a response to the growing "sustainable" trend – and the subsequent help-wanted signs in sustainable restaurants. Today, with gas prices soaring past $4 per gallon, the food industry is becoming even more sensitive to local sourcing. |
