Bloomsbury Farms Summer Camp


*The event has already taken place on this date: Fri, 07/21/2023
Our Summer Camp runs June through July with a focus on nature play and outdoor enrichment. These camps are perfect for adventurous families who love to pick up mud-covered kiddos each day. While each week of camp holds themed activities, (art, animal studies, farming, or outdoor adventure) every single day here is built on the foundation of being connected and immersed in the farm and forests of Bloomsbury! All summer, Bloomsbury explorers will have the opportunity to visit and pet the farm animals, collect eggs, cultivate the children’s garden, harvest produce for a snack, and explore the forests and streams that surround the land we cultivate. Beyond themed activities and projects, free forest play will be included in each day. Our Summer Camp runs June through July with a focus on nature play and outdoor enrichment. These camps are perfect for adventurous families who love to pick up mud-covered kiddos each day.

Camp runs Monday-Fri from 9am-3:00pm and is for children ages 5-12. If your child is outside of this age range and you think they would be a good fit, please email us at camp@bloomsburyfarms.com

$400.00 a week, per child. You are not required to sign up for all 7 weeks, feel free to mix and match weeks!

Your adventurer will be able to climb boulders and trees, make mud pies, play in the creek, build a bird nest or insect home, make mud pinch pots, and construct shelters. There will be art materials available for creating nature inspired art, as well as digging tools, strings, and loose parts to encourage creativity and collaboration.  At the end of each day, you can count on them coming home covered in dirt and full of stories!

All weeks of camp will be outdoors and nature oriented with plenty of opportunities to explore the forests, engage in creativity, and care for the farm animals at Bloomsbury Farms. No swimming activities are included, and play in our seasonal creek is supervised closely. We never exceed a 1:8 staff to camper ratio and love the cozy small size of our summer camp weeks! The likelihood of a very muddy pick-up at the end of each day is high! 

Activities are specially curated for each week of kiddos and may include:

  • Hiking

  • Caring for farm animals (goats, chickens, ducks, geese)

  • Engaging in creative art projects that are seasonal, hands-on, and nature oriented

  • Interacting with farmers and learning about what they are planting/harvesting

  • Learning outdoor survival skills

  • Engaging in experiments and explorations that are STEAM (science, technology, engineering, art, math) focused

  • Project based learning where children are encouraged and empowered to collaborate with one another

  • Creek/forest play

  • Music education

  • Bilingual instruction

  • Learning about the animals and plants that live in the farm lands and forests of our property
