Round the Bend Farm (partnered with Elements Learning Collaborative) is offering a week-long Farm Camp that will take place on our beautiful, working farm in South Dartmouth, MA.  Campers will participate in and learn about the farm systems, methods, and tools we use to tend our gardens and care for our animals. The week will include:

  • Planting, watering and weeding in our vegetable gardens
  • Harvesting and packing produce for our Manifest Love program
  • Helping to feed and water our chickens, pigs, and goats
  • Learning about our environmental philosophies and participating in actions that make positive impacts (materials we choose to use and reuse, composting toilets, cloth napkins…)
  • Preparing a farm-to-table lunch in our commercial kitchen with ingredients that campers help to harvest
  • Time to explore and learn about our natural surroundings

This camp is designed for campers aged 10-14 who enjoy spending time outdoors and don’t mind getting their hands dirty while helping to tend our gardens and take care of our animals.

Cost
RTB’s educational programming operates on a sliding scale to make on-farm experiences as accessible as possible.  Please pay what you are able:

Camp Cost $425 | Subsidized Rate $350

Support Equitable Access to Summer Camp
Every child deserves a summer camp experience, though not all families can afford to provide one.  Please consider supporting our camp scholarship fund with an additional contribution: $10; $25; $50; $100 to ensure that camp is accessible to all.
