Register now for farm camp
Are you looking for a fun and educational day camp for
your children entering grades three through six? Registrations are currently being accepted for the fifth annual “Farm
Camp Minnesota.”
This year, the one-day camp is expanding and will take
place in three different locations:
• July 26; St. Cloud area, near Rice, on the Schmitt Family Farm.
• Aug. 8 and again Aug. 9; Waseca area, at Farmamerica.
• Aug. 10; Northfield area, near Dundas, at Wolf Creek
Dairy.
The camp is put on by and sponsored by farmers, farm organizations, agribusinesses, and volunteers, and takes place
from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. Preregistration is required.
Farm Camp allows campers the opportunity to learn
about today’s agriculture, where their food comes from, how
it is grown, and how farm products are used in our daily
life. Each camper will have the opportunity to learn about
various types of livestock and crop farms, including pork,
beef, dairy, turkey, corn, soybeans and pollinators – a new
addition to this year’s camp. They will also learn about the
equipment used on farms, and at the Dundas and Waseca
sites, will each get a ride on a tractor.
Register online at farmcampminnesota.org. Early bird
registration is $10 per camper by Friday, June 10; after June
10, registration is $20. Registration includes lunch, snacks, a
free T-shirt, and a fun bag to take home
Space is limited. Registration will close July 8 for the Rice
site, and July 22 for the Dundas and Waseca sites, or when
full.
