As You Wish Acres
The life skills that come from homestead living are hard to find anywhere else, but not every child has access to these experiences. This is where our dream of farm camp was born; as an opportunity to extend these valuable skills to our greater community!
Farm camp will be held at our third generation family homestead in the Rogue Valley where we raise meat and dairy goats, layer and broiler chickens (as well as silkies!) horses, rabbits, and more! We grow a large 6,000 sq ft garden, along with smaller raised bed areas, all of which campers will get to explore!
What can my child expect to learn?
Where our food and other products come from.
Respect for the interconnectedness of living things in our world.
Team work and work ethic.
Animal husbandry & safety
Gardening
Land stewardship
Homestead handicrafts
Independence
Positive growth mindset
Who is this camp designed for?
This camp is designed for kids ages 6-12 and provides many in-depth experiences for those who have experience with animals and gardening and is also wonderful introduction if your child has never experienced farm life!
Campers are paired with experienced camp leaders who are able to accommodate your child's skill level* to make the most of their week at Farm Camp!
*For campers who need additional support beyond what our staff is trained for, we welcome DSP's (Direct Support Persons) or an attentive parent to accompany them.
