Every Monday afternoon Tikkun Farm hosts a small group of low-income, at-risk youth from our surrounding community. During the two-hour session a guest chef, along with farm staff & cooking assistants, teach the children how to prepare a healthy meal for their families. Through this program we teach the children the value of eating healthy, spending time on cooking healthy, and just how to do both.
We are currently seeking individuals who would like to act as a cooking assistant for our sessions. The duties would include:
+ Working closely with youth & assisting them in the prep of their meals during class
+ Being encouraging & supportive to youth, guest chef, & farm staff
Classes are from 3:30pm - 6:00pm on most Monday afternoons.
Our cooking assistants really enjoy working with the farm & our youth. We hope you might consider joining our farm family!

Mission Statement
Heal People. Restore Community. Repair Creation.
Description
Tikkun Farm, a 3.5 acre farm in the neighborhood of Mt. Healthy in Cincinnati, intends to be a place of healing, restoration and repair cultivated through meaningful work and spiritual practices.
Tikkun is a Hebrew word meaning "repair" or "restore". The phrase Tikkun Olamcaptures the collective life purpose of the Jewish people to "repair the world". This phrase has many layers of meaning from personal healing to global reconciliation, but at it’s core it means to join with God in repairing what has been broken: lives, buildings, the land, relationships, villages and nations, bodies, etc. The work of repair also shows up in the bible in Isaiah 61 which begins with God’s promise to heal to God’s hurting people, but goes on to say that those healed will become healers... "repairers of the walls" and the "restorers of the devastations".
