2010 FARM LIFE CAMP
2010 Family Farm Life Camp at Willows Edge Farm  Farm Life Camp ... is a fun, exciting day for your 5-14 year old child where they will be immersed in the daily activities of life on the farm. We offer an exclusive few, the hands on learning opportunity that so many dream of - we accept less than 200 children for the entire summer with an unheard of 5 to 1 (or better) student to instructor ratio! All in a family enriched environment where your child will experience the different aspects of farming, including, but not limited to: * Working with the animals on the farm. * We clean and prep barns, tack & animals. Sometimes the animals get as clean as we do! * Animal husbandry—the science behind animal care. * Kids have fun with different projects each day! * We work the earth...part of farm life, includes gardening. * 10 or less kids per day * And we can't even think about not mentioning ... a real horse riding lesson on a NORWEGIAN FJORD horse! * Last, but most important: Safety is our #1 Rule! Farm Life Comments:
"I wish I could spend the night and watch the horses sleep." Hannah, age 5 "I'd rather be cleaning stalls than cleaning my room" Cindy, age 8. "I wish I could live here!" Bella, age 7 Comments from our boys... "OK, You did your job...I had a great time here." Chris, age 13. "I thought this would be really boring, but it's actually really fun!" Alex - 12 YEAR OLD BOY We add the boys comments because not all young men are to keen on "learning farm life stuff" during their summer :-) These are just two that were highly memorable. And telling.
Don't miss this wonderful opportunity for your kids to experience real farm life this summer.
Parents are always surprised to hear about all the work their kids do here during Farm Life Camp - they work hard! But our premise is that when we do something we love, work becomes a lot of fun! We really strive to make learning and our work enjoyable and throw in fun things like real horse riding lessons to boot. Your child will improve upon their riding skills no matter what level they are at.
Like most other farms, we start our days at sunrise, but for the kids, their day will start at 9am and will finish up at 4pm (with before and after care available).
“An Experience Like No Other!”
Pricing...
 All this fun, oops we mean learning, for only $89. per child, per day (discounts for multiple days and early registration). We do offer a couple different packages if your child would like to benefit from extended learning experiences as well as affordable before and after care. Due to the busy nature of our working farm, "Farm Life Camp" dates are very limited.

About Your Instructors Corinne Logan is the primary instructor for each child's day. She was raised with cattle, goats, sheep, chickens and horses - that she started riding when she was 7 - and the love for the animals never left. With her husband, she offered therapeutic foster care for High Risk Youth - primarily teens having difficult times in other foster homes. She was also a home school mom to her three kids (17, 10 and 6) and loves to teach people about animals and their care in a fun, yet very informative way.
Additional instructors: We also have staff as well as interns that are here for the summer and they will get to share some of their own expertise and bring a fun, youthful addition to our team.
Because we work with your children, it is important for you to know that we perform a criminal history background check on all of our staff as well as interns. Again, safety is #1 here on our farm.

that will fit into your schedule.
Please Note: We will never force a child to work with any animal they are fearful of - it's just not healthy. Also, while we don't skip anything that we do here on the farm, we do lighten it up so it is age appropriate for your child and strive to keep our small groups similar in age. Successfully completing tasks, building self esteem and having fun doing it are our goals for the day.
