Back by popular demand with a new twist….
The Kids Homesteading College is set for June 14th through June 24th running Monday through Thursday of each week from 8 am to noon. The twist to this camp is that each camper will be buddied up with a “big brother” or “big sister” from the Work4College students to experience the farm and gardens each day!
