Generations at the stove

Cooking connects generations!

More than just recipes

At COOLINARIK, we are convinced that the kitchen table is the best place for people to meet. Our passion project, Generations at the Stove, transforms cooking into a unique intergenerational exchange in the Murten region and throughout the canton of Fribourg.

Here we turn the tables: seniors take the lead and pass on their valuable cooking secrets, while young people pitch in with fresh energy and gain practical knowledge about sustainable nutrition. Together with local farmers, we rediscover the joy of regional products and simultaneously combat loneliness in old age.

Why we do this

Passing it on: Making the valuable know-how of our senior citizens visible and appreciating it.

Learning: Inspiring young people to eat a healthy, local diet.

Connecting: Building bridges between cultures and languages (bilingual workshops DE/FR).

Growth: To spread this model of community to other Freiburg communities.

Our partners

This project is growing thanks to the valuable support of the municipality of Murten, the Loterie Romande (LoRo), the SVA and Mercato Bio.
