                   In 2016 with a bit of magic and some determination Two Pony Gardens started hosting
a Farm Camp with the mission of getting kids out to the farm and creating opportunities for them to connect with the land. 
By the end of summer 2020, over 200 campers will have completed our program! It is an honor that this project has been so popular and successful. ​​
                 At Two Pony Gardens we are committed to creating an oasis where people connect to
ecosystems through experience. E
xperiential outdoor learning has been proven to assist in all kinds of specific mental development, cognitive development, physical development, social development. Mostly, we hope that campers leave at the end of the week having seen, tasted, smelled, heard and felt-- 
  how wonderful nature is and started to develop an understanding of their role in land stewardship.

PARENTS COMMENTS & QUOTES

"Charlotte loved camp so much last that just over Christmas break
she was talking about it and how she even missed the mosquitoes! Hahaha!"

"This is Otis' favorite camp! So excited for another year!"

"I hope that you realize how much my children love you.
How much they love what you’ve taught them. This is not just a summer camp for our family.
The love, nurture, acceptance, responsibility, knowledge, challenges, etc. is building character and
a deep deep connection with what really matters. 
I wish you ran year round so that they
don’t have to wait the months they are counting already to see you again."
