Colorful and Conscious: The Discovery of Food Sustainability!

Join Discovery Cube, OC Waste & Recycle, and Santa Ana College for some hands-on kitchen science fun! As part of Pumpkin Palooza, every Wednesday and Friday in October in Discovery Cube’s Healthy Kitchen, kids will explore colorful seasonal produce offerings, while learning about the importance of reducing waste. Each week, the demonstration series will focus on a different color group, from purple produce in the winter to orange seasonal favorites in the fall, and all the colors in between.

Everyone is welcomed back on November 2 to join Discovery Cube’s annual Impact Event featuring pumpkin composting.
