Scifest 2025 Kids Workshop: "How Did That Get in My Lunchbox?" An Edible Exploration

Join us for an engaging, hands-on workshop inspired by How Did That Get in My Lunchbox? The Story of Food by Chris Butterworth, beautifully illustrated by Lucia Gaggiotti.
Together, we’ll follow the journey of everyday foods from farm to table, exploring how our favorite lunchbox staples are grown, harvested, and transformed into delicious bites!
Tasting & Exploration Highlights:
Chocolate Tasting Wheel — Experience chocolate in all its edible forms! Taste cacao nibs, cocoa powder, cocoa butter, and chocolate squares while learning about the journey from bean to bar. Discover where cacao is grown, how it’s harvested, and the cultures that cultivate this beloved treat.
Global Food Map — Explore where different foods come from on our interactive world map! Learn about the climate, land, and communities that make our everyday foods possible.
Bread Making in a Bag — Get your hands doughy! Mix and knead your own bread dough in a bag — a simple, fun way to understand how grains are grown, milled, and baked.
More Tasty Bites — Sample other foods from the book and discover their stories. Where did the apple come from? How does cheese get to your sandwich? Learn while you munch!
Who Should Come?
This workshop is perfect for little kids, families, and curious foodies of all ages. You’ll leave with a full belly, flour on your fingers, and a new appreciation for the amazing journey your lunch takes to reach you!
