Summer Programs
Young Pioneers Summer Edition
Hands-on farm adventures where kids harvest, cook, explore nature, and learn outdoors all summer long.
At Young Pioneers, children experience the rhythms of the farm through hands-on activities, nature exploration, creative projects, and simple farm-to-table cooking. Each week follows a unique theme inspired by the garden and the season.
Campers spend their days outdoors discovering how plants grow, experimenting with nature science, creating crafts, and enjoying the fun of summer on the farm.
