Just a reminder that camp registration starts tomorrow, January 14, at 12 PM! Space is limited.

Our June camp has both morning and afternoon sessions at Jeskewitz Homestead. The first July Camp at Home Grown Joy Farm also has morning and afternoon sessions. The other camps in July and August are morning sessions only (and will have smaller enrollment). The activities in the morning and afternoon sessions are the same.

Please make sure to fill out the correct registration form, as there is one registration for June and another one for July and August. You will also need to select the correct age group for each session (ages 4-6 or 7-12). Each camper will need their own registration form filled out. However, if signing up same child for more than one camp session at Home Grown Joy Farm, you can select multiple camp sessions on the same form.

If you have any registration issues please send a message through the camp page. We will be checking that regularly through the day.

All camps will have kittens, piglets, dogs, reptiles, bunnies, ducks, chicks, and goats. Camps offer crafts and games as well a look at farm life including animal care and gardening.

Jeskewitz Homestead in addition has horseback riding, cows, search and rescue dogs as well as creek exploration.

Home Grown Joy Farm in addition has Emus and a pond for exploring, swimming, fishing, row/paddle boating and critter catching.

We also built a fire and made s’mores! We are going to miss seeing the kids everyday on the farm. Thank you again to all the families that support our camp, we appreciate each and every one of you!

The day started out rather chilly, so we also built a fire and made s’mores. We had a great group of kids this week and we are going to miss seeing them every morning! Thank you to all the families that support our camp, we appreciate each and every one of you!

Day 4 - Pond Day! Today the campers explored the pond, created small habitats, went fishing and made pinecone bird feeders. Some of the campers also chose to play sharks & minnows (camper favorite!), decorate planters, make bracelets or check out the garden. The kids that chose to pick vegetables, also cut up veggies for the other campers (and animals) to enjoy. We are sad tomorrow is our last day for this group of campers, they have been awesome!!
