What is Farm Camp?
Farm Camp is a fun and educational opportunity for your child to experience modern-day farming at Donaldson Farms. Children make new friends, observe and participate in planting and harvesting activities, learn how to care for our ponies, create arts and crafts projects, enjoy healthy eating and living lessons, be inspired by farm fresh recipes, sample freshly picked fruits and vegetables, and, of course, play great summer games!
The campers will have a great time while learning all about farming and more! Special guests have included fun and interesting demonstrations by local first responders, scientists, animal trainers, and more!
We look forward to providing a behind the scenes look at the daily workings of our modern family farm. Our goal is to provide a happy, safe, and memorable experience. We hope everyone comes away with an appreciation for agriculture and knowledge of where their food comes from and the people who work hard to provide it.
