Stratford Chefs School immerses students in hands-on culinary training, but also teaches theory courses such as Food History, Communications, Nutrition, Gastronomy, and more. Exploring these multiple aspects of cuisine contributes to the development of skilled, well-rounded, thoughtful chefs.
In Level 2 Gastronomy, taught by Randi Rudner, students examine critical issues facing our food systems, sustainability, and the roles food and cooking play in modern culture. When asked to reflect on the food world around them and investigate a current issue in Canadian food production of personal interest, a number of thought-provoking essays were submitted by our Level 2 Students. We are pleased to share the report by Jessica Wilson (Class of 2025), which examines agricultural land trusts as a means of increasing land access and reimagining land tenure.
