Cook together in the community kitchen on the 1st and 3rd Tuesday of every month! What’s Cooking in Westport is on the 1st Tuesday each month (10am-1pm) at the Free Methodist Church! Learn new skills, take home food. Childcare is available.

Join us to try new foods and recipes, share a meal, bring extras home, have a good time, and meet new people in your community. We pick the recipes together, focusing on local, seasonal, budget-friendly ingredients. Some months we have a specific cultural theme, a guest speaker from the community, or a special event.

The group is facilitated by Registered Dietitian, Kate Earl, from Country Roads Community Health Centre. We discuss different nutrition and food safety topics each month and members share healthy eating tips with each other.

The program is FREE. There is no cost to participate. We also offer free childcare. Please ask us if you need help with travel costs. All we ask from you is that you participate in the cooking (and clean up!), come ready to have fun, and be open to trying new foods.

Back by unpopular demand and because of an absolutely dismal turnout we welcome more of Canada’s Finest Comedians featuring DOM PARE, JARRETT CAMPBELL + ROB BEBENEK!!!
Come back and laugh your face off with us!

DOM PARE

“Described as “one of the best new stand-ups around” by NOW Magazine, Dom Paré blends magnetic onstage charisma, hilarious observation, and clever writing to deliver memorable side splitting comedy.”

JARRETT CAMPBELL

“Jarrett Campbell stormed onto the Toronto comedy circuit, quickly becoming one of the fastest rising talents in Canadian comedy. With early appearances on MTV and NXNE, he became a staple on the Dark Comedy Tour. ”

ROB BEBENEK

“One of the fastest rising comics in the country, Bebenek has smashed audiences from coast to coast. His sharp wit and observational rants have left audiences in stitches. Rob has received major praises from peers, critics and most of all the crowds, for the way he rips apart day to day life and calls out idiocy in the world as he’s sees it.”
