We went out with a bang on our last day of the Playing with Your Food 4-H Cooking Camp! Our participants got to enjoy a fun filled day of so many water games, English muffin pizzas, hot dogs grilled to perfection, hand painted air bee-n-bee mugs, sun catchers, and so much fun! We can't wait for next summer's camp!

Day 4 of our 4-H Cooking Camp was a lot of fun! Our participants got to create an edible banana caterpillar, they got their hands dirty while making handmade energy bites, quick refrigerator pickles, and even painted their very own pieces for a tic-tac-toe and rota game!

We had a great time today in our class learning how to revitalize a flower bed. We used the 2 raised planters on the square as demonstration for the course & refreshed them with some perennials.

A special thank you to NC State Extension Master Gardener volunteers of Clay County who helped make this class possible!

Day 3 of our 4-H Cooking Camp was all about the sea...we made veggie sushi rolls, painted some fun window clings, learned about how different salts melt on our wet or warm food and used those same salts to create some fun water color paintings, and we finished the day with an ocean themed pudding cup!

Day 2 of Playing with Your Food 4-H Cooking Camp was all about getting our food from farm to table and making our snacks from scratch! Each participant got to make their very own focaccia bread, an edible graham cracker garden, and enjoyed a fun scavenger hunt outside in the Discovery Garden!
