presented by Culinary Nutrition Collaborative

We are thrilled to announce that early bird registration is NOW OPEN for the 7th Annual Culinary Nutrition Conference!

This conference serves as a bridge between nutrition science and culinary arts, empowering dietitians and health professionals to translate their nutrition expertise into real life practice in the kitchen for more impactful education.

As dietitians, most of us don’t receive culinary nutrition training as part of our dietetic education, but it’s never too late to learn or improve your skills!

Enhancing your knowledge and skills in the area of culinary nutrition opens up a wide variety of opportunities and allows you to:
• Stay on top of the latest research and trends
• Lead cooking demos or classes with confidence
• Help patients adapt recipes to suit their dietary needs and cultural preferences
• Work with your favorite brands through recipe development, blog posts, special events and more!

Not to mention bringing back fun and enthusiasm into your work!

I’M IN!

Here are the details:
When is it taking place? June 8th & 9th

Where? It’s totally virtual, which means you can attend from anywhere. (If you’d prefer to attend an in-person event, we’re cooking something up for Fall 2024.)
All sessions will be recorded in case you can’t join live, and you’ll have access to all the recordings for 6 months to rewatch your favorite sessions or review anything you missed.

What topics will be covered?

While research on the role of diet on brain health continues to evolve, scientific evidence suggests that including walnuts as part of a balanced diet may help maintain and improve cognition for individuals across the lifespan. There is also emerging research that suggests certain nutrients, eating patterns and individual foods, such as walnuts, may play a supporting role in mental well-being.

Join us for our latest installment of Eat the Science where Kristy and Jackie will share the latest research on how regular walnut consumption may help support brain health, cognition and mental well-being. They will also be demonstrating two unique walnut recipes in time for National Walnut Day on May 17 and Brain Health Awareness Month in June.

On Saturday, March 2nd, members of the Poor People’s Campaign: A National Call for Moral Revival will march and rally in state capitals across the country, bringing the demands of poor and low-wealth people directly to our lawmakers.

In Albany, we’ll be rallying in the midst of a critical New York State budget fight. For months the Hochul Administration has been signalling the need for an austerity budget, and just last month her proposed budget reflected that, including cuts to public services and an overall failure to address ongoing crises around healthcare, housing, and education in New York State.

Join us in Albany in order to push back on Governor Hochul’s proposed budget and to demand funding for critical resources that many in our communities rely on to make ends meet.

2024 Mass Poor People’s State of the State Assembly
Date: March 2nd
Time & Location:
10am: First Presbyterian Church: 362 State St., Albany
11am: West Capitol Park, State St and Washington Ave

If you haven’t yet, sign the NYSPPC’s petition calling on the Governor to stop cuts to essential services, invest in our communities, and tax the wealthiest New Yorkers to ensure they’re paying their fair share.

Transportation is available from Long Island and New York City. To reserve a seat on the Long Island bus, please email longislandppc@gmail.com and tell us whether you’ll be getting on in Suffolk (Brentwood) or […]
