some budgetary guidelines

While a majority of the start up costs for these programs(namely equipment & permits) have already been taken care of with the creation of Modern Tea, there are developmental and ongoing costs we need to consider with this program including:

  • time spent with recipe development geared towards youth cooking at home
  • overhead (rental fee & utilities) on the days Modern Tea is closed for teaching
  • labor costs for garden to table and inservice training efforts performed by our staff
  • small wears & ingredients
  • promotional materials & documentation
