SUMMER CAMPS
Summer camp at the farm is an unforgettable opportunity for children. Campers will experience all the best of the Heritage Farmstead Museum, exploring agricultural history and enjoying nature and creek life on our 4-acre historical site. Camp is designed to educate and inspire children, as well as build confidence, emphasize teamwork and maximize fun!
Activities during the week-long camp include learning about farm animals and assisting with animal care chores such as feeding, brushing, and pen cleanup; exploring Pitman Creek for aquatic creatures and fossils; learning how chores were done in the past; playing outdoor games and exploring the historic farmstead and crafts.
The Summer Camp open to students entering Kindergarten – fifth grade.
Camp is 8:30am – 12:30pm Monday through Friday. Camps are held rain or shine, so please be prepared for the weather and the special activities each day.
Campers will need to bring a lunch and water bottle each day. Registration fee includes one summer camp t-shirt.
