Kids Cooking Green

Kids Cooking Green is a series of classes and activities introducing 5th- and 6th-grade children to the importance of eating locally grown food.

Through hands-on cooking and lively classroom presentations, students learn about nutrition and the positive impact eating locally can have on the environment, and their bodies.

Each class has a nutritional component, an environment component, and a cooking lesson! The most exciting class is our 4th lesson, where the class spends a day making a nutritious meal for family and friends, prepared by the children working with area chefs, using locally grown ingredients.

Quotes from Kids:

I learned that lady bugs are beneficial bugs, and can help an organic farmer control other bugs!
Fiber is good for me, and apples are full of fiber!
Cooking is fun, and I learned a lot I didn't know before.
A new food I tried was squash, and it tasted like candy!
Vegetables make you strong!
I like when my hands turned purple from cooking the beets.
