Created: 02/07/2026
News/Events Category: General News
This item will show under the following categories: Children and Families
Starts Thursday 23 July 2026, 6.00 - 8.30pm
Join Greener Kirkcaldy's Community Food Team for a four-part workshop, where you will learn how to cook healthy and affordable meals, make the most of the food you buy, and effectively manage your energy use and bills.
The course is suitable for beginners and aimed at young adults aged 16-25 who are leaving home for the first time – whether heading to college, university, or their first home.
They will cover food shopping, meal planning, cooking skills, food storage and using leftovers, managing household bills and budgeting, and safety and energy saving in the kitchen.
Each session of the four-week block will include practical cooking activities, with the group cooking and enjoying a tasty dinner together. You will leave each session with new skills, practical recipes, and a full stomach.
They are running this fun four-part Thursday evening course once over the summer, starting in July and finishing in August. Participants are expected to commit to attending all four sessions.
The Lang Spoon Community Kitchen
The Lang Spoon Community Kitchen is part of Greener Kirkcaldy’s community building. They’re based in the heart of Kirkcaldy, close to the High Street and the train and bus station. Find out how to get here.
Their purpose built training kitchen has eight workstations, replicating the ease and comfort of cooking at home.
Their cookery school is complemented by a productive and climate-friendly garden, where they run volunteer training sessions and grow seasonal herbs, fruit and vegetables to use in our classes and events. They also have a larger community training garden and orchard in Dysart.
They host a wide range of events, courses and workshops on all aspects of food and drink. Both their Community Training Kitchen and Production Kitchen are available for hire too.
