About Jr Iron Chef VT

Jr Iron Chef VT, hosted by the Burlington School Food Project and VT FEED, is a statewide competition that gives students an opportunity to gain hands-on experience preparing and cooking nutritious, farm-fresh foods. We highlight local agriculture and encourage students to make healthy eating choices and understand more about nutrition, farm-fresh foods, the culinary arts and school food systems.

Jr Iron Chef is a fundraiser for VT FEED and the Burlington School Food Project. To find out more about these programs, visit "Who We Are".
