Kids Cooking Camps

Ages 6–15 · Full day · 10am–3pm

Each week has a theme; summer 2026 weeks were American Food Tour, Around the World in 5 Days, Vegetarian & Vegan, Seasonal Recipes, Breakfast for Lunch, K-Pop Demon Hunter Inspired Recipes and Harry Potter Inspired Recipes. Each day campers choose which recipes to make and prepare their own lunch, learning kitchen and food safety, professional kitchen etiquette, measuring ratios, prep skills and table manners. The camp supports beginner and intermediate skills and is not an advanced program. Drop-off is from 9:55 am and camp runs 10 am to 3 pm; phones stay in bags. The kitchen is nut-free (sunflower seeds, SunButter and WowButter stand in), and the chef does his best with other allergies. The business also runs winter and holiday camps.
