Weekly Themes and Focus
Each day our campers will experience what life on a farm is like. They will participate in farm chores, animal husbandry tasks, and gardening/horticultural experiences. No matter the day your child attends, they will always have the chance to ride horses, work and play on the farm, play sports and yard games, and do arts and crafts. Egg incubation and hatchings will take place regularly. Bottle feeding lambs will also take place on a daily basis.
We will also have a weekly theme, with a focus where we will deep dive into animals, nature, and simple ecology. Our "hands on" focus will repeat every four weeks, however no lessons will be repeated throughout the summer. Each week includes new ideas of what can be accomplished, not always what will be completed.
