Food at Hidden Valley Camp
 
Variety is the word to describe Hidden Valley's nutritious meals! Campers choose their meals, supervised by their counselors. They eat in cabin groups in our dining hall or outside for a sunny, picnic style lunch.

"My child came home raving about the food and has spent the past few weeks making endless suggestions from your amazingly varied menu. Thanks a lot!"

- HVC Parent

In our diet we prefer...lots of choices, homemade recipes, whole grained bread and fresh fruits and vegetables. Balanced vegetarian offerings are available, as is peanut butter and jelly! We minimize sugar and processed red meats and rarely use canned foods in our healthy, tasty meals. And, of course, there are always plenty of "seconds".

"If we had to send a curious 10-year old gourmand to camp, this would be the one.... The food is among the best in camping.";

- Boston Magazine

We easily accommodate most special diets and food allergies. Call or email us to discuss your particular needs.

We also offer healthy snacks such as popcorn, granola bars, juices and natural sodas during the afternoon.

"I have seen almost every camp kitchen in Maine and this one is the nicest. It's innovative and shows how much you think of the children here. I'm so impressed."
