The harvesting process is a chance for children to see where their food comes from and become more in tune with nature. We have a one-acre Kid’s garden specifically designed to have campers harvest from and plant in. Campers get the opportunity to grow and taste fruits, vegetables and herbs.  Many of these are incorporated into daily snacks and Friday’s cookout meal. 

​

The planting process or educational gardening is an opportunity for campers to learn about how foods grow as well as different agricultural practices to foster a better understanding of the world around them. In addition, they will learn about the land they are on and other significant factors in the planting process.  Campers will be able to plant a pumpkin seed in the summer and come back in October to harvest their pumpkin.

Campers will have the rare opportunity to reconnect with the joys and satisfaction of the natural world by interacting with the various animals on our 55 acre property, including horses, goats and chickens. Campers will be able to engage with the animals at their comfort level and learn about the specific animals as well as animal husbandry and best practices. 

Campers will also have the chance to participate in a range of activities. Our barns are a perfect venue for children to create seasonal projects and crafts and play games in our hay maze. Other activities include indoor and outdoor games, nature games like scavenger hunts and more! We will also allow time for group play and more tailored experiences.
