Children will also explore our 34-acre farm, forest, meadows and amazing creeks as well as our studio spaces, microgreen production area and delightful Solo Stove spots for building fires, roasting marshmallows and hotdogs and brewing some delicious hot chocolate on those chilly afternoons!
Children in our Forest Adventures camps will have time to feed the donkeys and goats, gather eggs from the chickens, cook up a little snack, explore art & maker activities and hike our endless forest paths. We will read stories, sing songs, play instruments and learn about all of the unique plants and critters on Belle Vie Farm and its acres of forests.
