Program areas at Out of A Jam
Well served is the catering division with A mission to expose students to the concepts and principles of culinary arts. Students learn the knowledge and skills required to perform the functions of food service personnel.
The food truck employs students in A summer work program selling upscale sandwiches to the fort wayne area and the surrounding community.
Feeding fort wayne uses the skills and tools we have to capture much of the unwanted, overstocked and forgotten foods and transition them into healthy, delicious meals for thousands of families in real need.
The essentials cooking class program trains high school juniors and seniors with life skills and provides opportunities for serv safe certifications and high school credits. We continue to sell jams made by students in the program and host A shop, cook & eat program designed to teach busy moms how to plan and prepare good food in 30 minutes or less.
