Camp Cost $425 | Subsidized Rate $350

Support Equitable Access to Summer Camp Round the Bend Farm (in partnership with Elements Learning Collaborative) is offering a week-long Farm Camp on our beautiful, working farm in South Dartmouth, MA. This immersive experience invites campers to spend their days outdoors, learning by doing—engaging directly with the land, the animals, and the systems that support a thriving, regenerative farm.

Throughout the week, campers will explore how we care for our gardens and animals using regenerative farming practices rooted in observation and respect for natural cycles, and shaped by Traditional Ecological Knowledge and long-standing relationships between people and place.

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.

  • 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 teens (and tween) campers 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.

What Parents are saying

“Thank you for an amazing week. This was the best experience ever for my son, and I know he’d love to be involved in the farm going forward in any way possible that is useful to you all. He learned so much and absolutely adored all of the experiences.”

“My child enjoyed it everyday and did not want it to end. I loved that she learned about garden(ing) and animal work.”

“I love the food truck and the mission-driven nature of the farm. It’s amazing to have the children engage in these nature-based activities that are also connected to the local community.”

“Absolutely recommend. In today’s culture, it is a great experience for children to be close to and appreciate nature…”
