New Year, New Growth: Earth Keepers 2026!

We are thrilled to usher in a new era at the farm! This spring, we are celebrating the opening of our brand-new Learning Center. While Earth Keepers remains a fully outdoor program, this new facility will serve as a vital resource to enhance our work—providing us with a farm-to-table kitchen for culinary projects, dedicated handwashing and restroom facilities, and a hub for specialized science activities.

To celebrate this growth, we’ve updated our 2026 program to better align with the natural rhythms of our land. While we’ve kept your favorite themes, we have refined our weekly titles to better reflect Nature’s Calendar and the living story of the farm.

Registration will open on Friday January 30th at 5:30—come grow with us and experience the new era of Earth Keepers!

The price for one week is $495.

Introducing: Seekers & Cultivators

As our community grows, we are introducing two distinct age groups to ensure every camper has an age-appropriate, high-energy experience:

  • The Seekers (Ages 5–9): Our explorers of wonder! Seekers focus on discovery and uncovering the magic of the farm and our natural spaces.
  • The Cultivators (Ages 10–14): Our architects of the land! Cultivators take on leadership roles, learn the science of the farm, and be involved in creating our new spaces.

This new structure allows for a better daily flow, more hands-on responsibility for our older campers, and a deeper connection to the earth for everyone.
