WHAT THE EXPERIENCE WILL BE LIKE... ROSE Therapeutic Farm Summer Camps are an exciting way to light up any young person’s summer. Our camps provide unique, hands-on opportunities for learning, growth, and fun. Campers spend their time here immersed in the natural world, with animals and the environment. Each camp is loaded with creative, enriching activities meant to help your kiddos connect with nature and learn how to enjoy ""the simple life"".

*Our camps are geared toward children ages 6 - 12 We may offer different age groups in the future so please email me if you have a younger or older child that is interested.
