Summer Camp: Berry Bonanza


  • Sand n' Straw Community Farm 629 Mar Vista Drive Vista United States (map)

This week follows berries from flower to fruit. Using pictures and models, campers identify the parts of a berry plant, learn which animals depend on berry bushes, and make a fold-out strip showing how a flower becomes a berry.

Science time is hands-on: rolling “berries” down different ramps, testing which colors are easiest to spot, seeing which seed shapes hitch a ride on animal fur, and building a carrier to deliver pretend berries safely. In music, they clap out berry names, make rhythm cards, echo birdsong, and put together a berry patch sound story.

Summer Camp Sessions are for ages 4-10.

Summer Camps are Tuesday-Friday from 8:30am-11:30am.

Cost: $350/week (Includes camp shirt and take-home projects!)

Every activity is adjusted by age. Four-year-olds work with pictures, short directions, and adult help. Five- and six-year-olds sort, count, make predictions, and try simple redesigns. Campers ages 7 to 10 measure, repeat trials, record results, and plan and explain their own designs.
