Dig In {To Science On The Farm} Summer Camp

Dirty Hands + Growing Minds + Full Bellies

Alongside the food we are growing, we are also growing learners here at Flinchbaugh’s Orchard.  Through hands-on lessons and projects, students will dig-in to agricultural and environmental science content in a fresh, relevant way, allowing learners to actively engage in inquiry and discovery – both foundational elements in science.

This summer camp is geared for learners 8-12 years and taught by Kristin.

What a day at Dig In looks like:

  • Parents drop off learners at Orchard Pavilion
  • Kick off with a greeting and a question of the day
  • ID and discussion of Key Term
  • Application and activity
  • Lunch (to be provided by student) + fresh seasonal fruit snack (to be provided by Flinchbaugh’s)
  • Project time

Areas of Focus:

  • Soils
  • Pollinators and Other Insects
  • Orchard Crops
  • Corn, Soybeans and Wheat Crops
  • Farm Animals
