Do you love to cook local and seasonal recipes? Are you interested in helping people understand where their food comes from, loving vegetables, and eating healthy, farm-fresh foods? The FARM Institute’s daily camp cooking lessons and public programs are inspired by seasonal farm produce they help grow. The FARM Institute in Edgartown, MA on Martha’s Vineyard prides itself on offering quality and locally focused cooking and skill-based classes in our teaching kitchen for our year-round and visiting communities alike. Summer classes include bread making, ice cream and pasta workshops, and making meals with local chefs where participants harvest from the garden and enjoy the food they have created during a shared dinner experience. Our summer camp engages 4–13-year-olds in daily farm activities, strengthening their connection to the food we eat and the land that sustains us. Afternoon cooking classes using food harvested from our educational Friendship Garden are a favorite camp activity. As a Culinary Instructor, you'll use farm-fresh ingredients to develop and lead three cooking classes each Monday, Tuesday, and Wednesday afternoon from 1-2:30 PM during the nine weeks of summer camp. This includes planning with garden and camp staff, set-up, and clean-up. Additionally, you'll assist in twice-weekly public programs and assist guest chefs in leading cooking classes for families and adults 2-3 evenings a week in July and August. Adult cooking classes include registration, set-up, class prep, as well as break-down and clean-up. Assisting with 2-3 farm dinners a summer is also part of the role.
