This summer, let’s grow some young farmers
Island Hill Farm's Agriculture Experience Camp!
If your child loves animals, is curious about nature, and craves a healthy, hands-on experience they will never forget, sign up now!
Camp spaces are limited to 6 children per week (ages a mature 5 to 12) and there are 8 one week camp sessions, but feel free to book multiple weeks. Independence is a huge importance with this camp, children must want to be here and immerse themselves in the full activities of the week.
Campers will spend the day learning where their food comes from, how to care for rabbits and chickens, and participating in basic barn chores like feeding and cleaning the animals! They will see eggs hatch, greet new baby bunnies, and get know our many goats at the largest goat farm on Prince Edward Island; each goat has a name!
Because of the small groups, the kids will have individual attention from our staff and camp leaders, and will get to meet guest experts on things like animal husbandry, sustainable farm practices, and how to milk a goat!
All our lead Educators are experienced farmers and teachers with current first aid certification. We provide a safe and inclusive environment that is also the #cutestplaceonearth
Sign up now! Or visit www.islandhillfarm.ca for more information
UPDATE: Camps are to be booked one week at a time for as many weeks as your little farmer wants to come!! Add the Camp you'd like to your cart and we'll be in touch before the start of your camp!

(Camp hours are ready to roll at 8:00AM to 3:30PM))

$360 +HST per week***
Camp must be paid in full upon booking.
***Note: $160 of camp fee is a non-refundable deposit. If you must cancel your spot, you must do so within 7 days notice of camp start date.
The ideal IHF Farm Experience camper doesn’t mind getting dirty, enjoys animals, and is eager to participate in activities. This is a hands-on camp! But it’s not all work! The animals show their gratitude in love and great selfies. And we will tie-dye t-shirts; bring a white t-shirt for that! Campers are responsible for their own food, drinks, and snacks and should bring a hat, repellant and sunscreen. A change of clothes and proper footwear (no sandals, please) are also required.
Baby goats sometimes make a mess 😊

Let’s get into more details:
You will learn from Farmer Flory – take a walk around the property with her and her dairy girls.
Farmer Flory is a wealth of knowledge and she will teach you so much about so many subjects here at the farm.
You will shop for feed (with funds given) in our feed store and learn how to ration and pay for food for the animals, purchase their bedding and learn how to clean their stalls.
You’ll cover environmental topics – composting!
We’ll talk about composting, did you know goat manure is great for the Earth?
You’ll learn about all of the breeds here at the farm.
What do our animals do? They each have a job. Learn what Gavin the miniature donkeys purpose is.
What is the fibre used for from our llamas, alpacas, and sheep.
We’ll spend some time baking in the farmhouse and learn about farm to table.
What do we do with our dairy goats milk? What can you make with it?
You’ll have a chance to tour our soap facility and see where all of our handmade products are made.
