Month: June 2025

What a beautiful week we’ve had together! 

We learned about dairy, made whipped cream and cheese from scratch, and even tried our hand at primitive crafts. The kids made cowhide tin can drums, homemade clay beads, and practiced weaving on cardboard looms. They also painted with watercolors..Imagination was in full bloom!

For stewardship, we worked hard together: mucking stalls, watering the garden, turning compost, and washing eggs with care. Our animals (and garden!) are lucky to have such kind helpers.

We hope to see you all again for Week 3, starting Tuesday, July 1st!

Day 1 of Camp Thrive was bursting with discovery:

• Eight newborn bunnies! Campers quietly peeked at the fur‑lined nest.
• Water‑balloon “egg toss” helped everyone learn names.
• Tie‑dye shirts now drying—rinse them tomorrow night (cold water, wash separately) so kids can wear them for Thursday’s photo.
• Barn rounds: chickens, goats, sheep, pig, and Muffin the dog all got plenty of love.

Coming up this week

• Paint & decorate wooden eggs
• Hard‑boiled‑egg + pickle tasting
• Felt bunny pouches & dreamcatchers
• Eggshell chalk, mineral tooth powder, jar mayonnaise and egg shell “smoothies”
