Campers


HMM…A FARM CAMP, WHY? Girls and animals mix fabulously. The mutual curiosity and naturally occurring nurturing ability are both encouraged and used to discover life’s lessons. ‘Be ewe-nique, moo-ve ahead, don’t be baa-d, be glaa-d!’

Opportunities abound. Mud, working with the animals and with each other,  songs and conversation combine to make the two-week experience a step towards healthy confidence and independence. Oh yes, and, of course, in the process we plant the seed for non-traditional career choices.

“Clearly, Emily had a good time. The fit was
just right—the right number of campers of
similar age, a common interest in animals
to break the ice, and shared responsibilities
to build teamwork and relationships.”
— Neil & Barb, parents, New Jersey

Teamwork and brute strength make the job easier. We learn tractor maintenance during an afternoon activity. How to change the oil is a good thing to know. A confident camper breaks the ice with costume and dance.
