Favorite Foods Guidelines are where you can find rules, recipe and menu tips, and more!
On Saturday, February 29, participants will bring their prepared food item, place setting, centerpiece, etc. to the contest. Chairpersons will schedule a time for each 4-H participant to meet with a contest judge. Judges will ask questions about the recipe, menu, and prepared dish and then sample a taste of the foods entry.
After meeting with a judge, participants may test their knowledge in the Foods and Nutrition Judging Contest, make a craft, or visit the Kids Korner. There will also be opportunities for members to practice for upcoming 4-H judging contests.
4-H’ers may also chose to enter the Photography and Graphic Arts Contest (see contest rules in this newsletter) and have their entries displayed at this event. This is always a fun-filled and educational event!
