Farming Focus

The Farm Focus Experience is for kids who are passionate about farming, animals, and  learning about Eco Diversity, Biodiversity and Sustainability:  Half of the day will be spent learning how to care for animals you’d typically see on a farm, getting their hands dirty in the greenhouse and the rest of the time in our  Flagship activities! A special week they will cherish forever.

Our unique Heritage Farm offers a wonderful variety of special hand chosen Heritage breeds. Meet our goats, pigs, rabbits, chickens, turkeys and alpaca! Each has a special purpose on the farm, we will spend time discovering wonderful purpose in each animal. The boys and girls in this Focus Experience form a strong bond not only with the animals on the farm but also with each other as they work together on the farm. The program helps boys and girls of all ages build empathy and trust—crucial skills when working with animals and people.

Our Brand Y Heritage Center is a state-of-the-art facility that includes individual pens specialized to each animal’s needs. Each pen leads to a scenic paddock with pasture access. We are passionate about the care of our animals and take pride in our ability to share such a unique farming experience!

All of our Focus Experiences are designed to provide a healthy balance between the Focus Activity and traditional summer camp activities: in fact, that is what sets these Focus Experiences apart from other focused activities for kids (such as sports camps). The vision for all of our summer camp programs is to help kids make new friends and work toward achievement in areas for which they have passion. These two outcomes are intended to help kids grow in empathy, build grit and determination, and emerge from a week of camp as a more self-confident and emotionally intelligent kid.
