Campers will explore all aspects of the Stamford Museum & Nature Center in this hands-on, exciting camp. From Heckscher Farm and our nature trails to streams and ponds, campers will work with animals, plant in our garden, study vernal pool amphibians, and more. Each session will consist of a mix of field studies, farm experiences, live animal interaction, arts and crafts, and nature exploration specially designed to get older campers excited about the outdoors.

Get up and go! Imagination and curiosity are key as The Rewilding School brings kids off-trail this summer at Croton Point Nature Center to discover new habitats, wilderness skills & primitive crafts...and lots of epic games! Expanded topics for 2019 include Hunter Gatherers, Woodland Wizardry, Desert Island Survival and Shipwrecked Pirates. Select sessions are also offered in Somers.

Our newly-formatted caregiver/child classes provide age-appropriate opportunities to explore the season through art projects, live animal visits, sensory experiences, stories, and more! Now held in the larger classroom in Heckscher Barn, we’ll have more room for fun and exploration but still keeping our small group atmosphere and toddler-friendly atmosphere. Weekly themes will reflect seasonal happenings on the farm and in the forest, so we’ll explore summer veggies in the garden, water! Please note, siblings who are in a baby carrier on a caregiver are welcome, but please make arrangements for any other siblings. Class size is limited to 8 children.
