Bee's wax wraps! If you brought one home today here's the instructions to finish them.
Bake on parchment at 300° for 5 or so minutes or just until the wax re melts and distributes evenly. While it's still warm, lift it off the parchment and wave it until it dries (this happens quickly)

To clean, rinse it until cold water

Seedlings Camp started today and we learned all about goats! We learned how to milk & groom them before drinking a fresh glass of milk. Then we had fun painting the goats before we learned all about making goat milk lotion. Each camper chose a scent for their lotion and designed their own label!

Welcome to the farm, Ethel!
This sweet Nubian mama lost her baby to a cougar and was in need of a milker. She is so gentle and settled in so quickly! Excited to share her with the farm camp kiddos in a few short weeks and let them try her delicious milk!

Two beautiful doelings for Piper born on Good Friday.
Piper is from a sire and a doe. These babies were sired by our beautiful buck, Gus, who we purchased from Runamuk Acres.

The cost of raising a family only seems to only be going up! Each year we look for ways to make camp more accessible to you; whether that's through community sponsors, scholarships, or researching grants!
This year we've expanded our payment system to include "After Pay"
This option allows you to register your child now while we have spaces available and split up the cost into 4 interest free payments over 6 weeks. (25% is due at time of registration)
We hope this little addition makes things just a bit more doable!
