Local Foods Cooking Class for Children

OSU Extension and Local Bounty Coshocton have been offering Cooking Classes for children age 4-10 this summer. The purpose of the classes are to teach children how fun and delicious cooking can be- especially with food you grow yourself. It also shows them foods that are grown and sold locally here in Coshocton County. During today's class we grilled pizzas made with vegetables from all colors of the rainbow - red tomatoes, orange and yellow peppers, green zucchini, purple (red) onions- not to mention cheese, pepperoni and sausage all on pitas made by a local baker. The children were even able to add fresh herbs that we planted during the first class in May. Here are some highlights of the day:
Instructor Kristi Adelsberger helps the children select fresh herbs to add to their pizza creations.
Instructor Marissa Mullett passes out the pitas for children to add toppings.
