CAMP PROGRAMS

At The Barnyard Classroom, our camps are all about outdoor fun and hands-on farm experiences!

Come experience summer in its truest form—rooted in nature, alive with rhythm, and full of joyful discovery.

​

At The Barnyard Classroom, our Summer Camp invites children into a slower, more soulful pace of life. Here on the farm, each day unfolds gently with meaningful work, imaginative play, and quiet connection to the natural world. Children rise with the sun, greet the animals, and spend their days outdoors—hands in the earth, hearts open to wonder.

 

Campers will tend to daily farm chores like feeding and grooming animals, gathering eggs, and watering the gardens. These real-life tasks foster responsibility, reverence, and a deep sense of belonging. Mornings are full of purposeful movement, while afternoons offer time for walks through the magical forest, storytelling in the shade, and nature-inspired handwork and crafts.

​

Our days are guided by the natural rhythm of the farm and the warmth of our experienced, nurturing staff. In small groups, children explore the beauty of summer through games, songs, seasonal activities, and plenty of free play beneath open skies.

​

🌿 What to Expect:

  • Gentle animal care and meaningful farm chores

  • Gardening, harvesting, and simple farm-to-table experiences

  • Outdoor games, walks, and quiet nature exploration

  • Walks through the magical forest, seasonal crafts, and handwork

  • Small group learning held with care and intention

  • ​

Flexible Enrollment!
Families may register for a single week or the entire season, choosing the rhythm that suits them best. Whether your child joins us for one week or many, they’ll carry home sun-kissed cheeks, new friendships, and the quiet joy that comes from a summer spent in harmony with the land.
