At the heart of Cookies Kitchen are the monthly clubs held for children over the age of 5.

Held just once a month, our Cookery Clubs provide a regular way to give children an opportunity to appreciate local produce, a good balanced diet and learn essential skills - all in a relaxed and fun atmosphere.

Each session they find out about ingredients; where they come from, how they can be used and how they taste, together with making a recipe using that month's ingredient.

We work with local producers to introduce ingredients to the children so they understand about the value of buying local food and making use of food when it is in season. We don’t just bake cakes, we make all sorts of things, such as soups and savoury dishes and the children each make their own individual creation, which they take home to share with the family.

Each location operates different session dates and timings. Please contact us to find out if there is a Club in your area.

WORKSHOPS - School Holiday and Ad-hoc Cookery Sessions
We run a regular programme of workshops during school holidays, plus ad-hoc sessions. Spaces are always under great demand, so early booking is recommended.

There is an annual club fee of £30.00
Upon joining the club the children receive their own cookery basket, recipe holder, notepad and apron. In the second year and subsequent years the children receive further gifts. An additional benefit is a 5% party discount for club members and ad-hoc workshop discounts.

Monthly session fees (from September 2010) are £22.00 per child.

This includes all ingredients, sample foods and beverages, recipes and fact sheets. Payments are calculated termly and due in advance. Fees are subject to review each academic year.

Visit to Maynards Fruit Farm, Ticehurst, East Sussex

  Trip to Higham Farm, Bells Yew Green, East Sussex

 

 
In 2008 there was a joint farm visit by several Kent Junior Cookies Clubs,
and well over 100 members and parents attended Bore Place, near Edenbridge.
The children saw cows being milked, made some pottery and saw the wonderful produce garden.
