Farm & Garden
CAMP
With a mission of connecting children to nature through farm-based education, Sugar Sweet Farm has served thousands of local children through farm tours, parties, and farm camps. Each day on the farm brings new topics for ever-changing exploration and fun. Campers grow, learn, and play through creative, hands-on projects, hikes with llamas, horse & donkey interactions, crafts, games, gardening, hanging out with and caring for the animals, gathering eggs, water play, and much more.
We offer camp sessions on a daily basis in order to create flexibility for your complex schedules. Though the daily rhythm is consistent with animal visits, crafts, gardening and games, each session of camp is unique, so most families select several days of camp that fit their schedule.
Our camp sessions are small with a 3:1 Camper to Counselor ratio.

Our little farm welcomed a new baby llama, a litter of baby bunnies, and two baby goats this January and we look forward to sharing them with our campers and CITs.

Every summer, we are so grateful for the continued positive response to our small Farm & Garden Camp offering on our Family Farm in Encinitas. We love connecting our sweet animals with so many children from our community and teaching them about sustainable farming, empathy for all creatures, and respect for their environment. Animal-lovers delight with their daily hands-on interactions with our goats, llamas, mini-horses, mini-donkeys, chickens, ducks, turkeys, pig, tortoises, cats and dogs.
