Summer Camp

Summer Camp at Turn Back Time! Our property contains a working farm, nature playground, beaver pond and an extensive trail system. We believe, and research confirms, that play is essential to every child’s development. It is the basis through which they navigate the world around them. We view nature as a great equalizer because children in nature are not constrained by any diagnosis, disorder, shape, age or size.

SUMMER CAMP IS FULL!

Farmer in Training
The garden is growing and so are you!  Sign up for a week of garden fun, learning all about what makes a garden grow. There are 6 weeks available throughout the summer, for Jr. Gardeners to learn about planting, growing, soil health, harvesting and selling! Each week will have a chance to harvest, prepare and sell veggies on the Farm Stand. We will also be responsible for feeding the chickens and ducks and harvesting eggs daily to sell at the farm stand. Students will help run the farm stand daily. This camp is appropriate for students entering 4th grade and up. Students will enjoy a snack and lunch brought from home and will still be able to enjoy the traditional farm activities.
