Calling all aspiring young chefs! We've got a great cooking camp for you and your family will love it too!
For 2025 we're offering two types of camp sessions:
NOTE: We have 2 agendas (set of projects/recipes) for 2025. 1 cooking agenda & 1 baking agenda, so kids can come up to 2 weeks (1 baking session and 1 cooking session) this summer and do different projects each time! If they come to 2 baking (or cooking) sessions they will be repeating the recipes from their first session.

Cooking camp takes place Tuesday through Thursday for 3 hours. Each camper comes home with a ready-to-cook dinner entrée and dessert for 5 people each night! Follow simple cooking directions and dinner is done! Bonus: All entrees are freezable.
Each day features different projects/ and recipes. Topics covered include:
The campers will make and enjoy a snack and prepare a dinner entrée (that serves 5) and a sweet treat to bring home, often a side dish too.
At the end of each session, all campers take home a cookbook.
Kids must be between ages 7-11 to participate. 12 year olds are welcome (and may be asked to assist!) if they are comfortable with other campers being in the session who are age 7+.
Note: No peanut, tree nut or shellfish ingredients will be used in cooking projects. Gluten, sesame and dairy will be used in projects.
2025 Cooking Main Course Entrees (protein):
Is your family vegetarian? No problem! Tell us at registration and we'll have vegetarian-friendly options for all 3 nights (i.e. beans or veggies instead of chicken/turkey). All sides and desserts will be vegetarian.
All entrees and desserts can be frozen and cooked later.
Think cookies, crisps, crumbles, and more! The kids will be mixing up a storm.
In addition to the 3 projects each day the campers also enjoy a snack. They will bring home their projects to bake and enjoy or freeze to bake & enjoy later. Many projects can be frozen before baking OR after baking.
Past projects have included such items as:
All recipes will be coming home in a cookbook.
Kids must be between ages 7 - 11 to participate. 12 year olds are welcome (and may be asked to assist!) if they are comfortable with other campers being in the session who are age 7+.
No tree nuts or peanuts are used in cooking or baking camp. Gluten and dairy ingredients are used in many projects so campers with those food allergies are regrettably discouraged from attending for their safety. Note: HomeCooked is not an allergen-free facility.
We aspire to inspire kids to have an increased interest in food and cooking or baking while in a safe, fun, and confidence-building environment. We teach basic techniques and have kids do all the measuring, mixing and they create their final products.
This camp is "hands on!" This is not kids watching our leaders make the dishes. Some ingredients may be prepped in advance for them to use in their projects (i.e. pre-diced onions or marinara sauce). They may use items like a pizza cutter for slicing or a plastic knife for frosting a cupcake.
What's almost certain is that the campers will have fun and leave with a huge stack of delicious food that they created along with big proud smiles on their faces!
If you are looking for an experience where your child learns "Cordon Bleu" techniques, masters formal knife skills, or gets "standing at the stove" experience, then we are NOT the camp for you.
Cooking Camp: $299 per Camper
Baking Camp: $279 per Camper
Occasionally partial sessions are available (1-2 days rather than 3 if camp is not sold out), $99/day. Availability TBD.
*Food costs have escalated significantly (and our campers make A LOT of food!). If costs continue to rise camp rates may increase, so register now to lock in your pricing!
If 2 or more siblings attend the same session, we will give your family a $15 voucher to redeem for meals, dips, cookies, soups etc. from the HomeCooked grab & go cases. Vouchers will be distributed the week your campers attend. Max 2, $15 vouchers per family and they must be redeemed by 10/31/25.
Also-- Almost all projects can be frozen, so for families with siblings attending you can eat one project and freeze the others.
All reschedules & cancellations are subject to a $20 change fee.
Rescheduling: It is possible to reschedule a session if space allows with at least 14 days notice prior to the start of your session. Rescheduling is subject to availability of desired future session and a $20 change fee.
Cancelling: Should a registered camper not be able to attend the camp after the registration fee has been paid and the request is received before 11:59pm on 3/14/25 you can get a refund - $20 cancellation fee. If after 3/14/25 and with more than 7 days prior to the start of the session it will be returned in the form of a HomeCooked store credit. For cancellations within 7 days of the start of camp parents may call/email to make arrangements to pick up the food on the day following the completion of camp. Requests for camp food need to be received prior to camp or within 30 minutes of the start of camp. There are no refunds or partial refunds after 3/14/25.
Folks with cancellations within 7 days of the start of camp will be able to make arrangements to pick up the food/treats the day after the session or at another prearranged time.
