Campers engage in activities like tracking pollinators through flower fields, digging into the soil to uncover important helpers, and gathering ingredients to create farm-inspired art and fresh snacks. Throughout the week, participants explore garden challenges, outdoor games, building projects, and hands-on cooking, developing skills in teamwork, problem-solving, and environmental stewardship. By week’s end, campers leave with a deeper appreciation for agriculture, nature, and community, enriched by meaningful experiences and new friendships.

We attended two weeks of this camp this year and I cannot speak highly enough of the program. It was unique and every week had a fun, thoughtful theme. It felt wonderful dropping my kiddo off daily to play and learn in the Peace Garden. We’ll definitely be back next summer, so glad to have found this gem of a camp experience!
