About This Adventure

Unleash your child's inner farmer at Farm Camp, where adventure meets learning! With hands-on activities blending STEM, art, and nature, campers will explore the farm environment while developing mental and physical wellbeing. Join us for a summer filled with creativity, reflection, and unforgettable experiences in a unique outdoor setting!

UNLEASH YOUR CHILD'S INNER FARMER!

Join us for an incredible adventure, where we combine the magic of the farm with STEM, art, fishing, and animal experiences! New, extended hours this year! Farm Camp will run until 2:00pm!

What Makes Us Special:

  • Fun Place-Based Learning: We believe in the power of connecting children with the unique environment of the farm. Engaging with the dirt, crops, breeze, and sunshine creates a deeper understanding of the world around them, and of themselves. Dirty hands are the best evidence of learning.
  • STEM and Art Focus: Your child will explore, engage, and learn through hands-on activities that blend the worlds of science, technology, engineering, math, and art. Get ready to tinker, create, and think like a farmer!
  • Mental and Physical Wellbeing: Campers will engage in activities that develop both physical and mental wellbeing. Aside from classic summer camp activities, campers will receive a journal in which they will think on paper through reflections on their daily experiences.

Join us for a summer of healthy bodies and healthy minds! Farm Camp is a unique place for learning and fun. We can't wait to see you there!
