Kings Community Action Organization hosts free food planning classes
The Kings Community Action Organization will be holding a series of classes through the month of July to help the public plan, shop and cook healthy and nutritious meals.
“It’s important, because nowadays a lot of people are diagnosed with health conditions or are overweight,” said Jane Gonzalez, the nutrition educator at KCAO who will be teaching the classes.
There are three more classes planned for this month that are entirely open to Kings County residents. All are scheduled for Thursday from 5:30 to 6:30 p.m. at the KCAO main office.
Thursday’s lesson focuses on how to use food labels, with other lessons scheduled on how to save money while shopping and how to prepare meals. The classes are completely free, and Gonzales teaches in both English and Spanish.
