Campers dive deeper into farm life through hands-on exploration of crops, animals, and seasonal farm systems. Campers explore how farms grow and change throughout the year — from spring pollination and summer growth to fall harvest and winter soil renewal — through hands-on activities and seasonal farm themes.
