At Goodlives, every part of our horticultural site has a purpose—to grow, to nurture, and to teach. Thanks to the incredible support from Forth Engineering, we’ve taken another huge step forward in this mission with the installation and delivery of our modular kitchen!
This kitchen has quickly become a thriving hub of activity, where learners can bring the fruits (and vegetables!) of their hard work full circle – harvesting fresh crops and turning them into delicious, budget-friendly meals.
The modular kitchen has transformed how we engage with learners. It’s no longer just about growing vegetables; it’s about discovering what can be done with them. Learners are gaining hands-on experience in cooking nutritious meals while sticking to a budget, valuable skills they can carry into their daily lives. One learner captured the spirit of this transformation perfectly, saying, “This is the best vegetable soup I’ve ever had!” Moments like these remind us why this kitchen is so much more than just a functional space—it’s an opportunity for connection, nourishment and learning.
We want to give a huge shoutout to Forth Engineering for their expertise and dedication in ensuring the safe delivery and installation of our modular kitchen. It wasn’t just about providing the kitchen; it was about helping us create a space where learners feel empowered to experiment, learn, and thrive. This kitchen is already making a difference in countless ways. From fostering teamwork as learners cook together to instilling confidence as they master new skills, it’s become an integral part of our horticultural site. The meals created here nourish not just the body, but the spirit, as learners take pride in what they’ve grown and prepared.
A heartfelt thank you to Forth Engineering: your support has helped us create something truly special. We’re excited to see what’s next for this space. Whether it’s hearty soups, healthy snacks, or creative culinary experiments, one thing is certain: this kitchen is feeding more than just appetites!
