Camp Grow!

 

   Camps at Meadowlark Botanical Gardens are fun, holistic investigations of the close-to-home natural world. The camp curriculum weaves nature activities and investigations into the beauty of a public garden.
Fun activities include (but are not limited to) gardening, nature journaling, drumming, hikes, yoga, storytelling, habitat restoration projects, music, scavenger hunts, Native American lore, painting, vegetable gardening, and much more.
Camp Grow is not a sports, day care, or play camp. Activities are designed to be engaging, challenging and educational. To assist in fostering a sense of community and belonging, all accepted applicants are required to sign a Behavior Agreement. We highly value and encourage inclusion of all campers in all activities. Camp sessions stay on the Meadowlark Botanical Garden property for all activities. We will adventure to every corner of the gardens using the gazebos, shady forests, lakes, gardens and open meadows as our playground. In rainy weather we may use the Visitor Center or Atrium for Activities.
The Log Cabin will serve as the camp home base.


Camp is from 9 a.m. until 4 p.m. each day, Monday through Friday of each week. Campers must bring all necessary food
and drink each day. Arrive dressed for the weather. Be ready to have some fun!
