As we embark on a local farm to table experience, nuestros campistas will dig into their roots and learn not only how to make a healthy, delicious and locally grown meal, but also see firsthand where our local crops, dairy products and meats come from. Partnering with Charles Koiner Conservancy Farm, campers will learn the process of growing our local goods from start to finish, why we need to rotate our crops seasonally and the importance of eating local. At the farm, campers will scribble in their science journals, list characteristics of common pollinators, observe the bees at work, harvest fresh produce, seed starts, turn composts and enjoy shaded tree picnic with fresh fruits and vegetables our campistas had harvested that day. Back at camp, campers will take our goods from the farm and experience churning butter, making fresh cheese, curing soap, hand creating bouquets and making delicious, homemade recipes using their gathered ingredients. We look forward to facing off in our Ice Cream Taste Off, as campers use our goods to hand turn ice cream and create a variety of delicious flavors! At the end of the week, campers will present their own Farmer\u2019s Market items and gift their organically made pieces to their fellow campers as we all partner together to Farm Local!

Throughout the week campers enjoy endless building and racing challenges (without a video screen!). Robots on the ground are cool, but are you ready to take your ground bot skills into the water? How about determining the best way to design and create twists and turns to build the fastest coaster? This program provides all the summer fun a camper may handle as participants rotate through a variety of thrilling activities.
