Campers at Snipes Farm Day Camp get into the rhythm of farm life. Every day begins with farm chores and cooking. Activities through the day take campers to the fields, woods and stream and find what lives and grows there. Singing, theater and crafts in big and small groups bring variety and zest to the day.
Stewardship is at the heart of all that we do - learning how to take good care of the Earth and each other. We recycle and compost and learn from inspired farmers about sustainable farming. All camp activities encourage cooperation and compassion and everyone makes special farm camp friends. And we have a lot fun along the way!
Camp Activities Can Include:
Picking berries and making smoothies
Discovering where bugs, lizards, toads and worms dwell
Creating nature-inspired art projects
Making music through singing and percussion
Taking a walk in the woods
Having fun with theater games and puppetry
Making interesting scientific discoveries by conducting fun experiments
Learning circus skills - juggling, plate spinning and stilt walking
Baking muffins and cobblers
Surprise "Theme Day" events.

William loves your camp. When I ask him each year if he would like to go back he always says “YES, mommy!” He loves the animals he gets to tend to and hold. He loves being out doors to explore nature. He has enjoyed seeing where food comes from and helping to grow and harvest. He loves the crafts – creating art out of found and recycled objects is thrilling to him. I think he really enjoys the other kids, too. They are not his neighborhood or school buddies, but they share his of love of the camp and its activities so they all get along well. I think this is an excellent camp for boys!

Kate had a wonderful experience at camp. She loved the outdoor activities and making new recipes with ingredients from the farm, and she liked to arrive early in the mornings just to have extra time interacting with all the animals. We would definitely send Kate to Snipes Farm Camp again next summer!
- Best, Jan
