Windsor NH, USA July 2011
In partnership with the Leaders-in-Training program at Windsor Mountain International Summer Camp in Windsor, New Hampshire The Cookbook Project facilitated a camper-led Cookbook Project class. Older campers in the Leaders-in-Training Program trained as Local Leaders and then led their younger friends in creating Food Culture Recipes, learning about Food Geography, and preparing healthy salads from the camp’s garden. The hands-on, garden-to-table program was a huge success, and created a greater sense of awareness amongst the Leaders-in-Training and their fellow campers about where food comes from, what really constitutes a healthy snack, and how delicious freshly plucked salad greens from the garden can really be!




Is it possible to create a project in an area local to me>?
This is so beautiful! There is a place near me called Anthony, NM and there are a lot of hispanic children, and a Women’s intercultural center, and a community garden. Could we not put all of these ingredients together to create a program for local children to learn about gardens and creating healthy recipes? Just curious…
