About
Summer Camp includes activities such as tending to the garden, planting seeds, harvesting crops, and caring for vibrant gardens. Campers explore through the lens of art and science, track pollinators through flower fields, dig into the soil to uncover important helpers, and gather ingredients to create farm-inspired art and fresh snacks. The program also offers outdoor games, building projects, hands-on cooking, nature journaling, sensory explorations, team-building games, classic camp crafts, outdoor play, gymnastics, water activities in the pool, crafts, and gym games, along with meeting friendly goats and guardian llama Hazel, caring for goat kids, and learning how to milk dairy goats.
