Kids Learn Easy Garden-To-Table Summer Cooking At Venice High School Learning Garden

The California Milk Processor Board, creators of GOT MILK?, together with Chef Gino Campagna recently conducted a free and interactive garden event and cooking demo for children.

Children’s culinary expert, Chef Gino Campagna, Master Chef at Piccolo Chef Culinary School and former host of "Gino's Kitchen" on the Disney Channel, took part in the California Milk Processor Board’s program at the Venice High Learning Garden, where he taught kids  what can be done in the kitchen with the season’s freshest produce once harvested from the garden.

The event was part of  the board’s GOT MILK? Program and its Real & Simple Summer campaign, which is working with select community gardens throughout California to teach kids how to instill the importance of authentic, nutrient-rich foods into daily meals this summer. 

The recipes are kid-friendly and combine fresh produce from the garden with simple ingredients, including milk. For recipes, visit www.gotmilk.com
