Campbell Chefs Host "Seed to Sandwich" Cooking Class for Philadelphia Students

Campbell Soup Company North America Foodservice chefs will host a "Seed to Sandwich" cooking class for Richard Allen Preparatory Charter School students on Oct. 20 at Bartram's Garden in Philadelphia.

Last year, Campbell donated Campbell tomato seeds for seventh graders from Richard Allen Preparatory Charter School in Philadelphia to plant at Bartram's Garden, America's oldest botanical garden located in Philadelphia. On Tuesday, Campbell chefs will teach the students how to incorporate the tomatoes they planted and other vegetables into healthful soups and sandwiches.

Campbell's Senior Research Chef Amanda Zimlich is a graduate of the Culinary Institute of America and has been recognized by the James Beard Foundation for her innovative French Northwest cuisine. Campbell's Senior Research Chef Tom Frain, also a graduate of the Culinary Institute of America, brings years of culinary and product development experience to Campbell. Chef Tom's career has included stops at franchise restaurants and the Four Seasons Hotels.
