Gallatin Valley Botanical

This week, campers will form a farmers guild consisting of artists, craftspeople, thespians, and naturalists. Campers will practice self-sufficiency as we use the fruits of the farm to create art, construct crafts, and tell the exciting story of farming through theater.

Come bask in the beauty of flowers as we discover the power of pollinators, the delicacy of edible blossoms, and the many ways to create art from flowers. This week is sure to delight the senses!

This week campers will become the ultimate foodies, exploring all of the foods produced on the farm and learning new and exciting culinary skills. We will follow the cycle of food from seed to table as we harvest and prepare tasty items from around the farm.

Water splashes through this week of aquatic exploration. See the farm from the perspective of the water that brings it all to life! Starting from the Rocky Creek, the water moves into our fields and pastures and fills our produce and animals. Campers will follow water's path and discover the creatures and plants, both wild and domestic, that rely on this vital resource.

An homage to our first ever farm camp here at Rocky Creek, this week campers will form a deep relationship with the natural areas of the farm, and explore the connections between nature and farming. The forests, grasslands, and marshes will provide the backdrop for creative play, art, and science as campers learn to thrive in the wild.

Animals reign supreme this week at Rocky Creek Farm. Join us for a week of caring for baby chicks, herding sheep and using their wool, and capturing butterflies. You might even learn to give a belly rub to a pig!

This camp focused on farming and leadership skills for campers entering 6-8th grade! Campers will dive deep into the techniques and theories of farming, and learn how to be exemplary leaders for other young campers excited to be learning on the farm.

In this magical adventure through the garden, campers will see our farm come alive with vibrant vegetables, heroic herbs, fantastic fruits, and rambunctious roots! Tap into your sense of fantasy and discover the wonder and joy of gardening while learning the basics of how to start and care for your very own garden at home.
