It is held annually during the Kentucky State Fair. This outstanding duo competed in multiple rounds to advance to today’s championship. This is a statewide high school cooking competition designed to offer youth the opportunity to learn valuable skills in recipe development, food preparation, marketing, public presentation, organization, teamwork and community involvement. Additionally, the program will stimulate interest in local agriculture, create a nontraditional market for Kentucky producers, increase quality of products available to school cafeterias, and ultimately increase consumption of produce by Kentucky’s students. Kentucky Commissioner of Agriculture Ryan Quarles presented the top award to the HCHS team.</p>
