Year of the Young Cook (YoYC)

Young Cooks

The SFA's programming for 2010 focuses on the Global South. With that in mind, and taking into account the fact that so many of our region's younger cooks were born beyond our nation's borders, we are offering new-to-SFAers who work as cooks -- and who have worked in that field for five years or less -- the discounted member rate of $50. Not a young cook? You probably know someone who is. Encourage them to take advantage of this opportunity to get involved in the SFA!
