The Organic Teaching Kitchen

I am Susan Chasen, a professionally trained Health Coach through The Institute for Integrative Nutrition, offering classes, gatherings, and parties for age four through adult. My philosophy is simple, there is no one diet right for everyone. In 2012, I opened The Organic Teaching Kitchen, equipped with a “teaching kitchen and organic garden” in Croton-on-Hudson, NY. The kitchen and garden provide sustenance, inspiring the basics of good nutrition. The Teaching Kitchen is a classroom where you learn how and where to shop, how to stock a pantry, how to simplify cooking, how to food prep, and how to cook seasonally using local+organic whole foods.

An aquarium devoted to Long Island Sound, with sharks, seals, sea turtles, jellies & more, plus marine-science programs for schools & the public, including hands-on cruises onto the Sound. The Maritime Aquarium features some 7,000 marine animals of 300 species, including harbor seals, 9-foot sharks, curious river otters, loveable sea turtles, pulsing jellyfish and more – all native to nearby Long Island Sound and its watershed.  These animals serve as ambassadors both for their species and the Sound’s natural environment. Guests' intimate encounters are the heart of the learning experience ... and the inspiration for new generations of Long Island Sound stewards. Hands-on experiences include: an Intertidal Touch Tank with sea stars, crabs and other shoreline creatures; a Shark & Ray Touch Pool with graceful creatures that don’t mind a stroke on the back; and Jiggle A Jelly, letting guests do something they’ve been told all their lives NOT to do: touch live jellies.
