Walking in the woods, picking vegetables, caring for farm animals — these are just some of the experiences your child will enjoy during the Youth Enrichment Center’s Summer Fun program.
Summer Fun is a weekly summer program of nature-based activities designed to enhance your child’s understanding of and appreciation for the natural world around us. This goal is pursued through carefully planned activities and projects that inspire your child’s creativity, foster teamwork, and are just plain FUN!
Summer Fun is led by a staff of certified teachers and trained volunteers. We guarantee a low child-to-instructor ratio.
Children ages 4 – 12. Children are placed into similarly aged groups so that we can tailor age-appropriate activities.
Summer Fun is offered in four sessions each July. Each session runs Monday-Thursday from 9:00am – 2:30pm. Children may come for as many sessions as you would like. Each week offers unique activities and differs ensuring campers will always have a varied experience.
Our 2026 Dates are as follows:
Each session follows the same general outline. Specific activities vary from week to week so that children who attend multiple sessions can enjoy a range of experiences and fun-filled activities including:
Healthy, nutritious snacks, lunch, and drinks are provided each day. Much of the food comes from our teaching garden, allowing children to participate directly in a powerful farm-to-table experience. We are very familiar with food allergies and can easily make any necessary accommodations.
While we encourage you to sign your child up for full sessions to ensure a spot. However, daily slots are available on a limited, first come first served basis. Call any time to check our availability. Our goal is to share the farm and our programs with as many people as we can, and if we can accommodate your child, we’re thrilled to do it!
Water bottle, hat, sneakers (no open-toed shoes or crocs), applied bug spray and sunscreen.
You should not bring in your own food in case of others allergies.
