The Food Love Farm Fall Kids Camp, hosted by Sierra Harvest in Nevada City, California, is an immersive educational experience designed to connect children with the Earth and the food they eat. Known as "the tastiest camp in town," it fosters community and wellness through hands-on farm life.
Camp Description: The camp provides a "seed-to-table" experience where children engage with daily themes related to food, farming, and the environment. It is kept small to ensure a community-like atmosphere and high involvement for every child.
Activities: Campers participate in daily farm chores, harvesting seasonal produce, nature-inspired crafts, and games.
Atmosphere: Focused on exploration and nature-play, encouraging kids to try new fresh vegetables and develop healthy habits.
Curriculum: Includes learning about the local food system, environmental stewardship, and even specific skills like grinding corn with a molcajete.
Camp operates from 9:00 to 3:00 pm, M-F, with 4 sessions per summer. Ages 6-11 are welcome.
