Summer Camp at the Farm

Terhune Orchards welcomes children between the ages of 7 and 10 to enjoy a fun-filled week of summer camp on the farm.

The two identical one-week sessions focus on how the farmer and nature work together to grow healthy crops and how they sometimes are at odds with each other.

This hands-on program includes a variety of activities, games, crafts and field trips that will teach the campers about farm life.  Activities include picking and preparing fruits and vegetables, tending animals, studying insects, butterflies, and bees, identifying trees, learning about pest management practices and water quality to name a few.  Hiking the Farm Trail, exploring the StonyBrook, and a trip to the Howell Living History Farm provide additional fun activities for the campers.

Schedule for 2010

The camp sessions meet from July 12 to July 16 and from July 19 to July 23 between 9am and 3:30pm. Call early since space is limited. For additional details or questions, call the Farm Store at 609-924-2310.
