OLC Culinary Class

My name is Chef William Walker, and Opleika Grows have been given the opportunity to share our love for food and cooking with the young men and women of the Opelika Learning Center.

Opelika Grows is a partnership of Opelika City Schools, Food bank of East Alabama, Keep Opelika beautiful, Inc and Auburn University. Built upon the history of Alabama agriculture to sustain citizens. We install and provide programing for service learning gardens as platforms to pursue life-long learning and to promote civic engagement with local challenges.

We are raising money to help support the costs of having to buy equipment and food for the different lessons that we are currently teaching and plan on teaching in the future. 

We believe and hope that this opportunity will allow us to continue to invest in the young men and women and teach them something that they can use either in their home or as a starter in a career as a chef.

Paying forward the gift that has been given to us is very important and we understand that this is a great opportunity for us to share this gift with others. Thank you all for any support that we will receive.
