The Culinary Literacy Center, of the Free Library of Philadelphia, will be offering a free, six lesson cooking program every Tuesday at 6 p.m. from January 6 to February 10. The program, titled “A Taste of African Heritage” will share a plant-based traditional African-American diet with its participants.

The goals of these sessions are to fight diabetes and heart disease by encouraging healthy diets within the Philadelphia community.
