Youth Arts & Ag Drop-In Day Camp 7/7-11
Farm-To-Table and Laughs Last
Service Description
Dig into a day of farm fun! Castalia STEAM - AM Session will take campers on an adventure exploring The Porte, harvesting and foraging as we go on a food photo hunt. We will dissect peppers, plant seeds, enjoy a farm to table experience and play a hands-on cooking game—all while learning where food really comes from. Collective Arts FC - PM Session will have kids tap into their creativity and sense of humor! They’ll create their own puppet characters using cut-out magazine faces and popsicle sticks, then bring them to life through group improv games and silly storytelling. Every child becomes a performer as we act out spontaneous scenes filled with laughter and imagination. And today's Lunch-N-Learn will be a Farm to Table Cooking Experience - Salsa Fresh where the kids will harvest the ingredients from the garden and make the best salsa in Franklin County!
