Spring Camp
April 14 - 18
We
started Spring Camp last year and
had an amazing time... in a foot of
snow, with never-ending campfires,
games, crafts and skill building. A
great way to spend a week out of the
classroom. For this year we are
planning another exciting adventure
in whatever natures brings us.
Check
it out.
Welcome to another exciting year at
Camp Earth Connection. You'll find
all our regular programs at our web
site - Explorers, Adoption Camp,
Mountain Biking, Farm Camp, CIT,
Village Camp and more...
Click here for
schedule and registration.
We have so
many new programs that this first
edition of our newsletter will focus
on them but we are equally proud and
excited about this year's edition of
all our regular programs as well.
 Farm Camp is now offering a
2-week (9 day) session in addition
to our weekly sessions during the
Summer. Come visit our old animal
friends, Bitsy, Sal, and Peppe,
chickens, turkeys, and meet the new
members of the farm. Help us expand
our garden, growing even more of our
own food.
 Moutain
Biking - is now
offering a new Basic 2 week (9 day)
session, in addition to our weekly
session and Advanced
Mountain Biking.
and snacks
are part of camp. Find out why we
primarily serve organic food and the
benefits of growing your own food;
check out a typical week's menu.

for a wonderful connection to
nature. Enjoy the peace and natural
beauty of this setting. Spend a

 Order
Your Free Range and Chicken Tractor
Poultry.
Limited
number of poultry meat birds (chicken
and turkeys) are available to order for
Fall 2008 pickup. Place a pre-order
today!.
Feeding your family fresh from the
farm (rather than from grocery
stores) has many advantages. I have
very positive experiences feeding my
kids home grown poultry, eggs, and
veggies from our farm.
