Week 9 (August 10th-14th)
Each week, campers will explore and learn on our working dairy and vegetable farm. Farm camp kids will be doing activities like cow hikes, planting vegetables, learning to weed and harvest things like tomatoes, peppers, zucchini, garlic, and leeks, cooking (and of course tasting) food in the kitchen or over a fire, spending time with and learning about pigs, playing outdoor games, bringing the cows in from pasture for milking, collecting eggs from our chickens, flower arranging, learning to make cheese or bread from scratch (yes, all the way from harvesting the wheat for the flour), and so much more. Each week is non-stop farm fun. Because we are a working farm, kids get to learn directly from the farmers about what it means to work with the land and grow food sustainably.
Camp runs weekly Monday-Friday during the summer from 9-4 every day with early drop off or late pickup options available. Discounts available when signing up for multiple weeks at a time.
A $100 deposit secures your child’s spot at camp. You will receive your health forms and a link to pay the remaining balance, 50% of which is due by May 15th, with the rest due by June 1. If you are sending multiple children/signing up for multiple weeks, your second week will be discounted by 10%, to be deducted from your remaining balance.
Our sliding scale payment option helps make camp more accessible to more families in our community. Below is a short list of guidelines to assist you as you navigate the question of how much you can afford.
Tier 1 (Accessible Pricing): $325
Tier 2 (Covers Camp Expenses): $400
Tier 3 (Supporting Community Education): $475
Consider paying more on the scale if you: Own the home you live in, have investments, retirement accounts, inherited money, travel recreationally, work part-time by choice, have access to family money and resources in times of need, have a relatively high degree of earning power.
Consider paying less on the scale if you: Have significant debt, have medical expenses not covered by insurance, have tuition/educational expenses, receive public assistance, have immigration related expenses, are a senior citizen.
The sliding scale payment model is an alternative to a charity model. It is an opportunity to look inward and take stock of our levels of financial resources. While we do ask you to reflect on where you fall on the scale, please don’t stress about it. Pay what feels right.
You will select your payment tier in your checkout form.
