Summer Camps

Camps are week-long day camps where children get the opportunity to immerse themselves in farm and garden life. They explore, help with farm chores, express their creativity with art projects, learn how to cook fresh vegetables and snack their way through the fields!

2020 Farm Camps have been cancelled. Please check back in early 2021 for more information on next summer's camps!

Farm Camps take place at Calypso Farm and immerse children in life on the farm through play, creativity, and exploration.

Session I: Ages 8-12

Each morning begins with fun farm chores such as feeding animals, weeding a garden bed, or checking the coup for eggs. Farm Camp is packed with a variety of hands-on activities, from wool crafting and creative projects, to cooking from the garden, fort-building, and learning about life in the field and forest. The week culminates with a farm lunch and final ceremony for all campers and their families. Each child gets a hand screen-printed farm camp t-shirt!

Session II: Ages 5-7

This session is geared toward hands-on, play-based learning in a growing environment. Whether meeting the farm animals in the barn, tasting fresh garden produce, playing games, or creating art projects, campers will have a blast exploring the farm and forest! The week culminates with a farm lunch and final ceremony for all campers and their families. Each child gets a hand screen printed farm camp t-shirt!

Session III: Ages 8-12

This week is packed with a variety of fun activities, from wool crafting and creative projects, to cooking from the garden, fort-building, and learning about life in the field and forest. Held later in the growing season, this session is especially great for campers excited about cooking and eating from the garden! The week culminates with a farm lunch and final ceremony for all campers and their families. Each child gets a hand screen-printed farm camp t-shirt!
