Join us for some fun on the farm this summer! Paulus Farm camps are full of age-appropriate, genuine, hands-on activities. Each day will be new so sign up for as many days as you like; please note however, that AM & PM sessions will be the same on each day. Daily Themes vary and are based on interest but will include the following over the course of the camps: fresh flowers, gardens of all sorts, farm foods, animal exploration & farm science.
BIG KIDS CAMPS are designed for children ages 6-8, 8-12 and 12-14. Registered campers will be guided by Morgan Hechler & Amy Paulus, Paulus Farm educational staff leaders; parents are not required to stay for this older group. We accept a maximum of 12 children each session day and we will enjoy all aspects of the farm: garden duties, field exploration, farm foods and in-the-pen animal time!
AGES 6-8 JULY 10, 12, 13, 14 LITTLE BIG KIDS
AGES 8-12 JULY 24-28 BIG KIDS
AGES 12-14 JUNE 26-29. JUNIOR FARMERS IN TRAINING: learn the ins and outs of working on the farm and prepare for volunteer positions that can lead to a paid part-time job for you! ATTENDING ALL FOUR DAYS OF JUNIOR FARMERS IN TRAINING IS HIGHLY RECOMMENDED.
NITTY GRITTY: We run drizzle or shine...please check our facebook page for weather updates. In the case of dangerous weather or torrential rain, we will cancel the day's class and attempt to create a raindate. If a raindate is not possible, we will offer a fall fun admission and animal feed weekend day pass for four or a gift card to Paulus Farm Market in the total paid class amount, LESS TICKETLEAP FEES, if you are a season pass holder.
Wear play clothes and old shoes because we do get dirty! Bring a hat, sunscreen, bug spray, face mask and water. Siblings are welcome at camp as long as they are registered campers; we want your registered camper(s) to have your full attention. Paulus FarmPark will be open to the public during camp time at the regular general admission fee; non-registered children and other adults may visit the play areas and animals that way but will not be included in the camp activities, snack or animal feed. We want everyone to be safe and well so we will adhere to our maximum head count for camp.
Campers and adult chaperones are welcome at the side gate entrance near the white greenhouse. Please be sure to bring your receipt (on your phone is fine) and check in at the white greenhouse to receive your name tag each day.
Your registration receipt is the only confirmation you will receive. All questions or concerns should be sent to us via email at [email protected] with the attention to Amy. Contact Amy via text at 717-342-9454 if immediate response is necessary. Thanks!
