Join TBGKids for an interactive, educational, and engaging Summer Nature Camp in TBG’s cozy nature-themed classroom, expansive garden and the nearby ravine. Each week will explore a new theme that will help campers learn from nature. From STEAM camp to a Magical Adventure week, campers will create nature-themed art, learn about plants and animals through hands-on activities, explore the forests and creek, and, of course, have a campfire! Each camper will create a themed craft to take home at the end of the camp day. Please note all camps are peanut and tree-nut free.

Wilderness is all around us! During this adventurous week, campers will learn how to safely make a fire, build a forest shelter and learn about the uses of different plants in the Wilket creek ravine!
