Richland Fit members Dr. Neil Bard and Dr. Christine Richards are gearing up for the second pilot for their “Food for Life” cooking class on May 31.  Here is a look at pictures from the first class held in April. The Food for Life Cooking class is part of a referral protocol the Richland Medical Center is implementing for patients that are looking to create changes in the way they cook and eat.  Dr. Bard and Dr. Richards attended the “Healthy Kitchens, Healthy Lives” conference hosted by the Culinary Institute of America and Harvard Medical School where they were inspired to develop these classes.
