Join us for a free planting session in the Children’s Garden at Terhune Orchards. Children will have the opportunity to plant seeds and seedlings. The directors of our summer farm camp programs will be here to talk about the camps and answer questions.

Terhune Orchards offers fun and educational farm camps for children ages 7-12 on its 200 acre preserved farm. Our five weeks of day camp runs in weekly sessions, Mon.- Fri., July 9 – August 10. Certified by the state of New Jersey, our camp is led by the farm education director and a science and STEM teacher.

What makes this camp special is its smaller size which allows for more individual attention to be paid to each camper. The unique setting of a working family farm means that our campers have a genuine real life experience of farm life, its people, animals, equipment, and of course the field fresh produce. They have a diverse set of experiences that includes: interacting with farm animals, harvesting, cooking, and tasting farm fresh foods, exploring the nature on the farm, playing games and sports, STEM activities, and engaging their creativity in craft projects. Perhaps most importantly, it is the new friends and memories that are made that make our camp such a wonderful and unforgettable experience.
