Day camp open to children ages 5 to 8

COBLESKILL, N.Y. – SUNY Cobleskill’s popular Children’s Farm-to-Plate Camp returns July 18 through 22, providing a week-long educational experience that highlights all of the pieces and processes of the modern food system. The businesses and processes used to deliver food from the farm to the plate will be explored in-depth with a focus on the ways in which food system design touches every part of our lives.

Campers will learn hands-on in the College’s state-of-the-art farm and food facilities while they delve into everything from animal and plant science activities to exciting food science, marketing, and culinary arts experiences.

Camp will be held daily from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m., July 18 through 22. All-inclusive cost per child is $215. Open to children 5 to 8 years of age. Please visit www.cobleskill.edu/summercamp to register.

This is a joint project between SUNY Cobleskill’s Early Childhood Studies and Agricultural Business Management programs.
