Local Foods Kids Cooking Camp, Coshocton

OSU Extension and Local Bounty Coshocton are collaborating to offer the fourth annual Local Foods Kids Cooking Camp this summer. This year’s theme is Cooking Around the Clock with fun, interactive classes providing children an opportunity to explore recipes featuring local foods. Classes will be at Local Bounty Coshocton August 8-12.

Children ages 5-10 who have an interest in cooking are encouraged to register for this camp. Each participant will receive accessories to help with their food preparation.

Classes will start on Monday, August 8 and run through Friday, August 12 with classes at 10 a.m. (5-7 year olds) and 11 a.m. (8-10 year olds). Each class will last approximately 45 minutes. A child’s parent/guardian/other adult care taker must stay on site during the entire class time.

Registration forms are available at the Coshocton Extension Office (CLICK HERE for registration) or at Local Bounty Coshocton. Completed registration forms must be returned to the Coshocton Extension Office, 724 S. 7th Street, with the $30 registration fee.

Thanks to a generous contribution from a member of our community, cooking class scholarships are available again this year. Scholarship applications are available at the Coshocton Extension Office (CLICK HERE for scholarship form) and at Local Bounty Coshocton. Families with financial hardship are encouraged to submit a scholarship application.

Space is limited and spots will be given to the first 24 registrants. The deadline for registration is July 29.  

This opportunity was made possible in part by a grant from the Columbus Foundation.
