Join us for an unforgettable week full of learning, exploring and creating.
Through hands-on activities your child will have fun, build confidence and create friendships. We want to help them connect to where food comes from and the nature around them. They will get a meaningful and educational glimpse into daily life on a working mixed farm. Learning to care for animals and the earth in a regenerative way will leave them feeling hopeful and energized.

What will your child experience during camp?

WHO IS THIS CAMP FOR?

Children who love animals and the outdoors. Farm experience is not required or needed. If your child loves playing, crafting and exploring in nature, they will be the perfect fit.

THURSDAY LUNCH BY ODLA RESTAURANT

On Thursday, Chef Scott Dicks of Odla Restaurant in Saskatoon will be coming out to do a cooking demonstration for the campers!  He will be using ingredients from the farm and the end result will be delicious and nutritious tacos that your child can enjoy for their lunch that day!  If you’d rather pack your child a lunch and have them skip the tacos that is completely fine too, just let us know.
