Always with warmth, humor, and encouragement.

Cooking with Cricket Flour (Yes, Really!)

One of the most exciting parts of the show is teaching families about sustainable insect protein.

Families learn:

• why insects are a sustainable superfood
• how to incorporate cricket flour into everyday recipes
• how to farm insects at home
• how insect protein benefits both people and pets

It’s nutritious, eco-friendly, and surprisingly delicious.

History Comes Alive

For example:

• Making peanut butter? Meet George Washington Carver.
• Learning about beekeeping? Say hello to L.L. Langstroth.

History becomes personal, practical, and fun.
