Wolfoods breaks away from the standard approach toward camp food by eliminating the standard freezer‑to‑table fare and improving it with home‑style scratch cooking. Partnering with camps committed to offering campers healthy, fresh, and delicious foods, Wolfoods is changing the perception of camp food into what is more aptly called Camp Cuisine. Summer camp kitchens and dining halls are a great opportunity to educate campers on the importance of balanced diets and green initiatives. A diverse menu offering allows campers to not only enjoy their favorites but to experience culture through exploring cuisine. Each meal offers something freshly baked on site by one of our professional bakers in the camp bakery. Campers can enjoy perfectly executed entrees or they may enjoy an offering from the morning fruit and yogurt bar at breakfast and during lunch and dinner, the salad bars. No camper is left without personalized care. Any camper requiring special diets is attended to with the importance by one of our trained chefs. Wolfoods is practiced and prepared to cook for an array of diets ranging from Kosher to nut‑free, or gluten‑free to vegan.
