All you need to know about Girl Scout cookie season
When Can You Buy Girl Scout Cookies?
The 2025 Girl Scout Cookie season in Central Ohio runs from mid-January through March. During this time, you can order directly from a Girl Scout you know, or find cookie booths set up at various locations around Columbus.
Where to Find Girl Scout Cookie Booths
If you don’t personally know a Girl Scout, you can still get your cookie fix by visiting one of the many booth sales happening around the city. Troops will be setting up at grocery stores, shopping centers, and other high-traffic locations throughout Columbus.
Retail locations that usually have troops outside include Kroger, Walmart, Lowes, etc. Most booth sales can accept credit card, Venmo, and Paypal…so don’t let not having cash sway you from purchasing!
To locate a booth near you, visit the Girl Scout Cookie Finder website or download the Cookie Finder app to search by zip code.
Online Orders
Girl Scout cookies can be ordered online! Troops offer online ordering with the option for local delivery or direct shipping. If you know a Girl Scout to order from and they are offering local delivery, you may select that option. If you don’t know the Girl Scout personally, please select direct shipping.
