Camp descriptions

​All camps are for ages 6–10 and run Monday–Thursday from 8:30 AM–12:30 PM, with Friday reserved as a rain date. Tuition is $269 per week.
The Great Garden Cook-Off! 
[July 27 - July 30]
Taste the magic of summer! Explore our vibrant, organic, youth garden. Harvest fresh ingredients straight from the soil. Learn when crops are ready to pick and how to gather them with care. Then, team up with fellow campers to create delicious, garden-fresh snacks and meals. Enjoy hands-on cooking time, outdoor play, and time to explore the rest of our beautiful 6-acre farm. 

Drama in the Wild 
[August 3 - 6]
Step outside and onto the stage! Use the natural world as inspiration when diving into storytelling, character creation, and improvisation. Through theatre games and outdoor scenes, explore the expressive power of your voice and body—learning how to bring a character to life while playing together in nature. 

Forest Alchemists
[August 10 - 13] 
Calling all young scientists and herbalists! Learn how plants can heal, soothe, and protect in this hands-on, nature potion camp. Discover the properties of local herbs and flowers, then turn them into natural bug sprays, sun soothers, healing mists, and calming mood blends. Explore the garden, play in nature, and leave with powerful potions of your own making!
