During this week, participants step into the role of a landscape architect and farm steward. Each morning, as we embark on morning chores, we embrace the responsibilities of animal husbandry and seasonal food production. This gives hands-on experience in what it takes to sustain a working farm.
This week’s specialized focus centers on a vital "Water Wisdom" project, where campers will work together to construct a dry creek bed leading from our water retention pond. By strategically placing rocks and native stones, children will engineer a functional and beautiful drainage system designed to manage runoff and protect the surrounding soil. This immersive week, where the science of hydrology meets the grit of farm work, is a week of meaningful work and active exploration, showing children the rewarding journey of using natural elements to help a farm ecosystem flourish.
