Overview
Join us for an unforgettable week of food, fun, and hands-on learning at Forklift Virginia, the boutique culinary school led by acclaimed Chef Rich Rosendale. Our Spring Break Kids Culinary Camp gives aspiring chefs (ages 10+) the chance to build essential kitchen skills, work confidently at their own station, and explore a new culinary theme each day.

Campers will be guided by professional chefs through interactive, skill-building lessons—everything from knife safety and pasta-making to baking desserts from scratch. The week culminates in a graduation celebration and plenty of delicious food to enjoy along the way!
