By popular demand, we’ve added a new and exciting afternoon summer cooking camp where jr. chefs will learn basic cooking skills, kitchen safety, and create delicious and nutritious recipes. This hands-on experience will not only teach our campers about food but also inspire them to be creative. Such a class structure ensures that kids not only have a blast but also learn fundamental cooking skills and the importance of healthy eating in a safe and engaging environment. Each day there is a different theme! See below.

Farm-to-Table: Emphasize local, seasonal produce from our farm and teach participants how to create dishes that highlight the flavors of the ingredients at their peak. Recipes include - Roasted Vegetable Grain Bowls, Herb-Roasted Chicken and Wakeman Town Farm Peach Cobbler.

Asian Fusion: Combine flavors and techniques from various Asian cuisines like Thai, Japanese and Chinese to create unique and exciting dishes such as Korean BBQ Chicken Tacos with Asian Slaw, Japanese-Inspired Teriyaki Burgers and Mini Lemon Cheesecakes with assorted toppings.

Cowboy Cookout: Dive into traditional simple yet hearty food cooked campstyle, such as a Chicken Sliders on Cornbread Muffins, Green Bean Salad, and Campfire S'mores.

Easy + Healthy: Prepare nutritious meals that are satisfying and easy to make, focusing on balanced and mindful eating. Veggie Stir Fry with Tofu, Baked Lemon Chicken and Rustic Fruit Crostata with Fresh Whipped Cream.

We often get out into the garden to hand-picking organic ingredients in this hands-on cooking experience that promotes teamwork, as well as cultural insights and concepts like seasonal eating. We enjoy the foods we prepare at the Farm.

ALLERGIES: Kindly let us know in advance about any allergies so we can determine whether or not we can accommodate, as we are a shared kitchen with multiple chefs/caterers who use common allergens.
