Photo Galleries

The Culinary Boot Camp has always been about more than just food—it’s about learning, collaboration, and making a difference in school kitchens across the nation. To capture the energy, passion, and progress made during these immersive training events, we’ve compiled a series of photo galleries that showcase the experience from start to finish.
