Farm Fun All Summer LongSummer Camp at Shipshape Farm is all about fresh air, farm animals, outdoor adventures, creativity, and good old-fashioned fun. Campers spend their days outside exploring the farm, playing games, making things, caring for animals, digging in the garden, and building friendships.
We’re a 100% tech-free camp, so campers leave the screens at home and spend their days getting dirty, getting creative, and making memories on the farm.
Summer Camp is drop-off only.
What Do Campers Do All Day?
No two days are exactly alike! Campers spend their days outside from start to finish, with activities shaped by the weather, the animals, and the season.
Expect old-school field day games, hands-on crafts, farm chores, animal time, garden exploring, taste-testing, imaginative play, and plenty of opportunities to make new friends.
Campers may help with milking, collecting eggs, caring for animals, digging in the garden, exploring the farm, and getting delightfully dirty along the way.
And Wednesdays are Water Days! Think slip-n-slides, hoses, water guns, and plenty of ways to cool off. If summer decides to turn up the heat on another day, we’ll find ways to cool off then, too!
