A homelike atmosphere allows children to feel comfortable and secure. Four-Week Session for Ages 10 and 11. In the four week camp the rhythm and structure is similar to the two week session. Also limited to 33 campers, the emphasis is on building a home away from home on the farm. In the longer session there is more time for lively camp events such as hikes to nearby state parks and forests, musical and entertainment evenings, overnight camp outs, special Sunday gatherings, a carnival, and an Olympics day.
Older campers spend two weeks on the farm camping in platform tents in a secluded, shaded glen.
Campers work for part of the day alongside farmers and other professionals who are involved with growing, processing, distributing, and cooking healthy food. There is also ample time in the day for swimming, sports and games, nature exploration, arts and crafts, campfires, music making, and other camp projects. A talent show as well as hikes and other day trips enrich the experience. By the end of two weeks, campers will develop responsibility for self and others through meaningful and productive work while learning to live closely together in a community setting.
