Submitted by Kelsey Penrose on Thu, 04/29/2021 - 9:49am
Valley Farms Minden, Carson Valley's newest family-owned farm, will be hosting a Farm Camp for children this summer, as well as Baby Goat Yoga classes.
Farm Camp
A week full of farm activities will include feeding Alpacas, mini horses and chickens as well as walking the mini horses, brushing them out.
Campers will learn how to feed and care for all the farm animals and what each farm animal needs to be happy and healthy. A different craft activity will be held daily. The day will end with an 17-inch inflatable double slide and games.
On Friday, parents and siblings can come pick up their little farmer an hour early so their child can take them on their own farm tour.
There are currently four camp dates to choose from: June 14-18, June 28-July 2, July 12-16 and July 26-30. Each camp runs from Monday through Friday from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m.
The cost is $300 per child and is for children ages 5 and up.
