Our Intersession and Minicamps are designed to align with the schedules of Chapel Hill Carrboro City Schools and Durham Year Round Schools. This way, whenever school is out, kids can stay engaged, have fun, and gain knowledge through real-life experiences.
During our minicamp, kids immerse themselves in various farm life activities. They spend time with and care for our adorable animals, including guinea pigs, chickens, rabbits, pigs, and turkeys. Additionally, they enjoy hiking in the woods, engaging in arts and crafts, learning about gardening, and learning the fundamentals of horsemanship. Everything on the farm focuses on hands-on learning and having a great time!
