(Ages 13-15) Teens take over the farm this week, with an action packed daily itinerary of horseback riding lessons, trail rides, hikes with the farm animals, feeding and care of the animals, and discussion of current trends that are effectiving agriculture and equestrian sports. Teens will enjoy arts and crafts classics as well as honing homesteading skills like cooking, sewing, and food preservation.

Campers will develop a critical thinking lense for common issues faced by modern agriculture with a curriculum that introduces sustainable agriculture practices.
