What do we eat?  FOOD!
How do we get food?  from PLANTS!

Kim Tait of Tait Farm Foods shows campers how to plant herbs in 2008 in PA

Under the shade of the live oak in front of Pinkie Thrift Hall, Senior Research Associate Mila Berhane of SUAG will teach our campers at SU about planting herbs on Monday, June 11 as an introduction to our Flavor Workshop that day.  Stay tuned for more details!

Much Ado!

There's lots to do to get ready for the camp!  Dr. Johnson and Mrs. Fields have long lists to work on each day.  Sheila Smith keeps track of who is on what base and Derika keeps smiling serenely and making copies of what seems to be endless paperwork.  The lab is broken down and then put back by the counselors at the training session.  Then the foods lab is ready to go!  Ready for the campers and for local chefs to come in and help with the cooking!

Chefs Have Fun!

Chef David Tiner, director of the Louisiana Culinary Institute, guides his students through a cooking demo at the Red Stick Market in downtown Baton Rouge.

There's lots to do to get ready for cooking camp!  First, to organize the foods lab in Room 157 Pinkie Thrift Hall, under the magnificent shade of a legendary-looking tree.  We know--it's going to be COOL in there!
