4-H Food Challenge

Northern District 4-H Food Challenge Competition

Youth in teams of 3 - 5 are given a set of ingredients and a clue as to what they can make with the ingredients. They then have 40 minutes to prepare a dish using those ingredients with additions from a "pantry" as well. During the 40 minutes they also need to prepare a presentation about the preparation, nutritional merits, and costs/serving of the dish, as well as food safety measures taken. They are only judged on their presentation and teamwork during the competition - judges don't have to taste the dishes. Judges will receive an orientation before competitors arrive. More information about the competition including a judging rubric can be found here: https://www.ext.vt.edu/content/dam/ext_vt_edu/topics/4h-youth/competitions/food-challenge-manual.pdf

For this event, we are in need of judges that have experience with nutrition and/or food safety and volunteers that can help with room monitoring.

Mission Statement

The mission of 4-H is to assist youth and adults working with those youth to gain additional knowledge, life skills, and attitudes that will further their development as self-directing, contributing, and productive members of society.

4-H is based on seven foundations: it is community centered, volunteer led, Extension staff supervised, research based, home and family oriented, publicly and privately funded, and responsive to change.
