Teen Farmers Camp

July 25, 2022 @ 9:00 am - 3:00 pm

$425.00

New for 2022!

Teen Farmers (ages 13-16) will spend their days on the farm and in our fields a mile and a half down the road. At the home farm they will learn about the different animals and plants living here and how they play into the bigger farm picture including the 16 acres we graze with our herd of sheep and llamas.  They will probe deeper into what regenerative agriculture means and see the beautiful and varied animal habitats that grace our fields and farm.  Activities might include milking the dairy goat and handling animals at the home farm and then taking soil samples and learning about the different plants in our pastures.  We will spend down-time working on nature-inspired crafts and art/sketching throughout our week as well. The fields provide lots of visual inspiration for artists and by doing art the campers refine their observational skills as well.

Please note camp runs from July 25-29 9am-3pm each day. $375 for members, $425 for non-members. The registration is for the whole week (not just one day).

Please also note that, due to the nature of this camp, children will be transported by car between the home farm and fields by an adult (either part of Henny Penny staff or Farmer Whitney). While the registration fee is not refundable you may transfer it to another child (that fits in the age group selected) once you notify us of the change.

Along with our Shepherd and Supporter of the Farm Members, previous camp families enjoy an exclusive registration window to summer camps for 1 week before camps are released to the mailing list and then public.

Registration Open for Shepherd Members, Supporter of the Farm Members and Last Year’s Camp Families Sunday January 23 6am

Registration Open for Public January 30 6am.
