Kids: Flavors of the World Spring Break Camp

Children ages 6-11, join us on vacation and travel to three thrilling spring break

destinations. Come cook, garden, and participate in tourist activities from all over

the world, which is way better than staying at home! Go back to school and share

stories with friends about Japan, Italy, and Australia.

Day 1: Travel to Japan Tuesday, April 8 2014 10a-2p

Find your zen in a tour through Japan and create homeade sushi rolls and fried rice, and paint a cherry blossom tree out of recycled bottles.

Day 2: Travel to Italy Wednesday, April 9 2014 10a-2p

Travel through Italy and learn about what goes into harvesting and taking care of herbs and then choose some for a personal italian pizza in the kitchen. Apply ingredient knowledge in a fun italian pizza inspired food group activity!

Day 3: Travel to Australia Thursday, April 10 2014 10a-2p

Take a walk in the outback to discover how to keep plants alive and healthy with insects. Enjoy some shrimp on the barbie and pavlova before heading back to the greenhouse for some corn hole

Snacks provided daily, and at the end of each day campers will take home recipes,

a greenhouse activity, and camp handouts.

Be sure to wear comfortable attire (not too loose for safety in the kitchen)

and athletic shoes for breaking a sweat!

What are my transport/parking options getting to the event?

The Downtown Market has 200 parking spaces in our lot. You are welcome to park here when dropping off and picking up your child.

What can/can't I bring to the event?

Please don't bring toys or personal belongings to camp as we have plenty of activities planned and wouldn't want your special items to get lost. We will also cook up our own snacks in the kitchen, so don't worry about packing your own. Please make sure to let us know if your camper has any food allergies or intolerances.

Make sure to wear comfortable clothes for activites such as: planting in the greenhouse, cooking in the kitchen, and fitness activities in the outdoor shed. We suggest closed-toed, althetic shoes for safety and breaking a sweat!

At times, we may be outside for up to one hour.

If your camper would like to wear a hat or sunscreen, please send those items along.
