Experience the beauty of nature through art and exploration at Abbey Farms' Eco Camp. The knowledgeable staff will lead campers through an action packed week where they will play, learn and grow! Educational activities will focus on nature and include supervised hands-on experience in the Abbey Farms garden. All camp activities are focused on early learning taught by the in-house certified teacher who knows how to make learning exciting and memorable.

Each day of Eco Camp will also include supervised free play where campers will form new friendships and investigate the textures, colors and sights of the farm. It will incorporate a combination of daily arts and crafts, a healthy snack and group games.

Both indoor air-conditioned and fun outdoor activities await. Just a few of the fun learning activities include: building a bug and worm hotel out of household goods; learning how food is grown through hands-on, simple gardening; learn how to churn homemade butter or ice cream; vegetable stamp art; simple paper making; nature scavenger hunt around the farm; supervised play time; and more.
