A brief description of the sustainability-focused immersive program(s) offered by the institution:
During the 2014 Spring Break six students from CNM's Culinary Arts Program traveled to Oaxaca to learn about Mexico's street food scenes. In partnership with the Street Food Institute, the students participated in an immersion-learning experience. They spent afternoons with a celebrated Oaxacan culinary expert, Chef Susana Trilling, at the Seasons of My Heart Cooking School, learning to cook the classic dishes of the region. Chef Trilling also wrote the book “Seasons of My Heart; A Culinary Journey Through Oaxaca, Mexico.” They spent their mornings at the Instituto Cultural de Oaxaca, studying and practicing Spanish, a much-needed skill in the culinary industry, especially in New Mexico.
The students spent their evenings experiencing first-hand the renowned street food culture of Oaxaca.
