Together. Evolving. Nourishing.
Project T.E.N.
Project T.E.N. brings The Evolved Network’s culinary experience home — giving students and families a chance to cook, taste, and connect beyond the classroom.
Project T.E.N. is The Evolved Network’s take-home cooking experience.
Each season, students receive a thoughtfully packed kit that brings our classroom into their kitchen — inviting them and their families to cook, taste, and linger together.

Every Project T.E.N. kit includes:
  • Ingredients for a seasonal recipe
  • A step-by-step cooking video with Chef Sebastian
  • Conversation starters to spark stories, memories, and reflection at the table
Rooted in The Evolved Network’s philosophy, Project T.E.N. is less about perfection and more about presence. Food becomes a way to practice care for ourselves and one another, and to remember that even a simple meal can carry warmth, memory, and possibility.

Talk at the Table

Use these gentle prompts as you share your meal:
  • What memory or feeling comes up when you taste something that reminds you of home?
  • If this dish could tell a story about your day, what would it say?
