ROCKLAND — The Coastal Children's Museum is hosting a delicious fundraiser and wants to publish your favorite recipes into a cookbook.

In 1988, the Mid-Coast Children's Museum published a cookbook with local flavors and favorites. Now, nearly thirty years later, the Coastal Children's Museum is bringing back a rendition of this classic cookbook. As we embark on this endeavor we begin by collecting favorite recipes from people in our community. To that end, we are appealing to you for help. Each recipe selected for publication will display the name of its contributor. Please consider becoming involved in this fundraising event. Just send us 2 or 3 of your favorite recipes no later than May 20.

Simply print or type your recipe(s) and email them to Jessica McMahon at volunteers@coastalchildrensmuseum.org or mail them to the museum at
75 Mechanic Street Rockland, Maine 04841.

Alternatively, sign in to typensave.com, login with the following information and submit recipes for your favorite dishes:

These personalized cookbooks will make great gifts, will help the Coastal Children's Museum continue to offer new exhibits, programs and workshops, and will be a wonderful representation of our community! Your friends, family and the community will especially enjoy recreating the flavors of midcoast Maine.

For more information, email the museum at volunteers@coastalchildrensmuseum.org, phone 596-0300 or message us on Facebook. Located at 75 Mechanic Street.
