FRIENDLY PONY PARTIES & BARN YARD PALS
Barn Yard Camp
About
Our "Farm Animal/Pony Camps" are unique to the Bay Area and the Coastside. In addition to caring for and riding the ponies for the week, our campers will learn about and interact daily with all of our farm animals. Each day we will focus on a different member from our menagerie of chickens, ducks, bunnies, pygmy goats, sheep and miniature potbelly pigs. The kids will feed and care for them and study their habits including collecting eggs, helping to trim their hooves, and shearing the sheep. In addition, we'll have lots of fun doing related arts and crafts, keeping a daily journal and being immersed in so many hands-on, experiential learning experiences.
Availability
Currently we are only taking referrals from past or current campers. Or if you have already done a Pony Party or Petting Zoo with us- we are open to talking with you to see if your child would be a good fit. Our camp is very small and we like to have small groups of children so they have the best experience possible!
