A FARMERS MARKET IN A FARM
New this year is a Certified Farmer's Market opening April 23rd at The Pierce College Farm Center with fresh produce from local farmers, various specialty items and prepared food as well as fun activities. Open 5-9 p.m. each Thursday night through the end of September.
"Our vision is to provide our community a unique connection to local farmers." explains, Robert McBroom, The Director of the Farm Center. "Our mission is to provide locally grown produce. We now can offer a new way of providing more varieties of fresh produce by utilizing a shared opportunity with other farmers."
The Farm Market opens from 10am to 6pm daily. The classic farm market is located on a 22-acre working farm and a 6 acre agri-tourism public area offering the community an opportunity to connect to agriculture. A balance of fun activities are a real merry go round and a small train ride with an animal farm and agricultural demonstration area, enabling guests to have fun in a real farm setting while learning a little about where your food comes form.

From Blueberry Muffins to Cheese Raviolis, Quiche to Double Chocolate Fudge, our hands-on workshops focus on cooking from scratch using fresh, seasonal ingredients and time tested culinary techniques.
Our goal is to provide a safe, fun and educational environment where campers can learn to read recipes, cook and bake, work safely in a kitchen, and explore creative food ideas in meal preparation while encouraging a lifelong appreciation for healthy eating.
At Cooking Camp campers don't just sit around and observe, everyone participates and feels a sense of delicious accomplishment.
Our instructors are talented chefs who love working with kids and young teens. Imagine having a culinary arts expert sharing their passion and depth of experience with your child!
Our Cooking Camp chefs not only teach general cooking techniques but sprinkle lots of
lessons into the mix, discussing culinary terms, nutritional values, kitchen safety and food science. Successful cooking begins in a kid-friendly environment and our staff has designed a series of summer sessions where children can succeed in learning skills safely and enjoyably.
So whether your child is interested in becoming a head chef or simply a maker of a mean pesto sauce, Cooking Camp is a wonderful opportunity to expose your child to new foods that encourage them to expand their culinary palates and can serve as an ideal entree to culinary pursuits!
