Salomon Farm/ Farmin' Fun Day Camp

   The Farmin’ Fun Day Camp provides summer fun for boys and girls ages 4 and older. Activities include environmental exploration, arts and crafts, farming and gardening, animal care, games and much more. The garden will be abundant with vegetables to harvest and sell, the pygmy goats will be caring for new babies in the Bat Barn and you’ll meet other animal residents… donkeys, sheep, goats and chickens! Children of all ages care for the animals each day, work in the gardens, learn about and tend the compost piles, go fishing, hiking, and explore the creek.

   Young adults ages 11 and up also learn about Beekeeping and visit our hive to see the bees at work. This group is called the Farmers in Training, and every Wednesday they harvest in the gardens and set up the Old Barn for a Farmer's Market. They have the opportunity to stay after camp and sell the day's harvest with other local food growers. The Farmer's in Training also take a Field Trip once a week to a market vendor's farm to see local growers at work. Previous Field Trips have included a maple syrup producer, and a local vegetable farmer who runs a CSA.
