Preschool Garden Camp
Join us this summer at Garden Camp — where children grow their connection to food, nature, and community.
Located at Summit Community Gardens, campers are immersed in our 1.5 acre space full of growing food and flowers, surrounded by nature, and nestled under the mountains. Each week, campers plant, tend, and harvest in the garden, then cook simple, seasonal recipes right on-site using fresh ingredients. Campers create nature-based art, investigate soil, plants, and ecosystems, and spend meaningful time digging and discovering outdoors.
Through this hands-on learning and exploring, children build practical skills, learn to care for the land, and gain a deeper understanding of where their food comes from, all while experiencing the fun and freedom of summer outdoors.

Is your camper always asking questions, digging into things, and curious about how the world works? This week will invite campers to dive deep into the cycles and systems working within the garden. Through hands-on experiments and demonstrations, campers will learn about the water cycle, the life cycle of plants, the decomposition cycle, and so much more!
