Camp details

Little Brook Farm Camp started as a way to share our animals and the farm experience with children.

Farm owner Kristen Whittle is the camp director and is also a DESE certified educator and registered nurse. Children at camp will have the opportunity to learn about livestock and sustainable agriculture in a hands-on program. Animals include sheep, goats, pigs, horses, donkeys, turkeys and chickens.

How it works

Campers start each day by helping with morning chores such as collecting eggs and milking the goats. Working with the animals is all hands-on. In warm weather, most afternoons we set up the slip-and-slide! Camp is open to kids ages 6–12 years. The camp day runs from 9:00 a.m. to 3:00 p.m.

Camp registration

Five-day camp sessions are $350 per camper, per week and the four-day session is $280 per camper, per week. Reservations are $100 per camper, per week. Reserve early as space is limited! A non-refundable $100 reservation (or full payment) is required to save your place at camp. You can choose to pay your reservation or the full camp fee online or by check. If you register for a week that becomes full before your reservation reaches us, your deposit can be applied to another week (contact us if this doesn’t work for you, and in this case we can refund your deposit). If a particular camp week is full, you can email us to be added to the waiting list in case of last minute cancellations. Please contact us if you have questions.

Submit your registration form so we know you’re planning to come
Once you’ve registered, you’ll be able to pay your non-refundable reservation or full camp fee

You may be able to get a copy of your child’s physical exam/health form and immunizations from their school nurse before the end of the school year.
