Farm Camp 2012
ABOUT FARM CAMP:
Devon Point Farm Camp is designed for campers of varying ages. The morning sessions are for campers ranging from ages 4-6, and the afternoon sessions for ages 7-9. Our campers have the opportunity to see how our farm works and learn by pitching in with farm chores and getting their hands dirty. In addition, every session includes activities focused on a specific theme. Campers will get the opportunity to get closer to the food they eat and the natural cycles of the community they live in.
Campers will learn about where their food comes from, the basic principles of healthy eating, natural cycles found on a farm, the history of farming, and farm animals, in addition to participating in farm chores such as harvesting vegetables, starting seeds, making compost, and collecting eggs.
DATES FOR 2012 TO BE ANNOUNCED!
