Baby Animals on the Ranch

SilusMore spring break camps >

This day is ALL about baby animals. The spring youngin's are born and we're here to welcome them to their new life on the homestead.

Spring Ranch Camp

Visiting local farms we meet baby animals of various livestock. We meet local farmers who embody the enormous responsibility and respect essential in the care for all domestic animals.

Campers discover how everything from chickens to goats and birds to bees come into this world. They also observe and discuss how parents of different species care for their young.

Plus we spend some time away from the field and in the forest, tracking the birds and beasts of the wild, learning about the similarities and differences in how they care for their own young.

A Smile

We help children to feel like that group of kids wandering country backyards 50 years ago: independent, tired, muddy, wet and happy from the woods and wild. We are acutely aware of full and real hazards of the out of doors after years of working in environmental education. We try to move away from the highly structured and limiting tolerances of conventional environmental education while keeping kids truly safe but not encapsulated from, or phobic of nature. We are deep patriots to the value of offering guided yet very free and transparent experiences for kids. We believe it is okay to be thirsty at times, cold at times, and wet at times. It builds empathy and care for the gifts of life. It fosters adventure and sincere accomplishment. We also believe it is critical to feel supported and cared for as they truly explore their passion and responsibility. And through a healthy life immersed in nature, they test the limits and great potential of the often untapped physical and emotional resiliency they possess.
