Farm Camp gives children a chance to experience life on a farm
by engaging them in a daily routine which includes caring for
the camp garden and animals, preparing meals, participating in
outdoor recreational activities like fishing, hiking, exploring
nature through a variety of activities and crafts. Most
importantly the campers learn how everything is
inter-connected.
The campers will take part in planning and designing different
aspects of the farm with the goal of creating a sustainable
system which benefits both humans and the environment. Farm
Camp continues to grow as we bring more animals into our
program. Welcome back Bitsy, our American Miniature Pony. The
pony can provide both fertilizer compost for our gardens and a
mode of transporting of heavier goods such as water and hay by
cart to the outer reaches of the farm. Welcome back, Sal and
Peppe, our two bunnies (now full grown) who also provide
fertilizer in our raised garden beds, and enjoy playing in their
“playground” designed by the campers. And our chicks from last
year are now egg-layers which many of us will enjoy when we have
our weekly “Breakfast for Lunch” menu. Come check out some new
friends and cherish the old. We say goodbye to Simba who passed
away peacefully this year and is now buried on a hilltop of
Hammond Hill.
