About this event

Farm Camp is a week-long summer day camp that offers an opportunity to educate children about farm life while fostering friendships and cultivating a passion 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 and the environment including creeks and ponds
Discover the by-products of many crops—corn, soybeans, pumpkins, apples, cherries, and strawberries.
Connect the importance of science to agriculture
Play – enjoying our fun activities such as our Super Slides, Jumping Pillows, and more!
