Winter, 2022 - 2023

We're thankful for another fantastic year and are planning for what's next, with an update before the new year.  #NovelExperience. #OutdoorAdventures. #DigitalDetox. #SupportingGrowth. #LifeSkills. #AwesomeFood.   

Camp registration for summer, 2023 is up!  For more, click HERE.

Of note: our last Teen Food Leadership Summit (females aged 16-19) happened the October 8-10, 2022 Weekend.  We dove dive into great food (and farming) and explored how it solves problems: #Disease, #RuralEconomies, #ClimateChange, #ConcentratedPower, #Racism. Applications closed in early September.  For more details click HERE.

Note: We understand COVID remains a risk and stay abreast of best practices (from the CDC and American Camp Association) to keep kids and their families safe and healthy.

Included here are a few sample MEDIA coverage we have received over the years: A piece titled “Fresh from the Farm” about camp in the Loyola Academy Magazine (page 4 & 5). Articles on camp and food in Good Food on Every Table and here. We were covered in a piece on Farm Camps in Chicago Crain’s Magazine and a guest post in the nationally acclaimed Fed Up with Lunch.

The Local Beet gave us a shout-out in the Good Food Fest Wrap-up and we were featured on WGN TV Mid-day News as well as WCPT radio and WGN radio. Note: for the WGN TV gig we borrowed a couple things from awesome Chicago friends, e.g. microgreens from local food innovator The Urban Canopy and the flat of mint from The Kilbourn Park Organic Greenhouse
