Kids Cook!
Mountain Roots invites kids ages 10-14 to join our Kids Cook! courses, designed to inspire and educate teenagers about the world of culinary arts. Our classes feature fun themes, cooking from scratch, and plenty of tasting. With different recipes each week, kids learn skills to cook delicious meals that are nutritious, organic, and locally sourced when possible. We offer six-week sessions every fall, winter, and spring in both Gunnison and Crested Butte, as well as additional workshops throughout the year. Allergies are accommodated and spaces are limited.
Annual events in Crested Butte and Gunnison
Gunnison Valley is also host to several beloved annual events. A classic winter event is The Alley Loop, a Nordic ski race that doubles as a costume contest. In fall, Mt. Crested Butte hosts the famous Chili and Beer Festival. Every summer in Gunnison, a crowd gathers to watch America’s fourth-oldest rodeo, Cattlemen’s Days. There are also festivals in Crested Butte that celebrate local art, music, wildflowers, and more. Attending an annual event is a good way to connect with the culture of the Gunnison Valley. You might even create a new tradition for you and your family and friends!
