Farm Camp - 2020

What is Farm Camp?

Farm Camp is a week-long summer day camp that offers an opportunity to educate children about farm life while forming friendships and developing a love for farming! Campers will experience hands-on fun and have the opportunity to:

Care for animals - feeding, training and cleaning
Learn about growing crops - riding hayride to fields to examine plants, soil and weeds
Explore the farm
Discover the by-products of our many crops - corn, soybeans, pumpkins, apples and cherries
Connect the importance of science to agriculture
Play - enjoying our fun activities such as our Super Slides, Jumping Pillows and more
Make and take fun crafts
