Registration for an upcoming spring break camp aimed at getting youth involved in hands-on activities and farm life is now open.
The new spring break farm camp, hosted at JC’s Ooasis on 234 N. Popp Rd., is from March 24-28 from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. daily. Young farmers ages 8-13 will enjoy hands-on farm animal care experiences, nature exploration, a daily craft, activities focused on repurposing, recycling, reusing, and more.
Linda Oosse operates JC’s Ooasis, and said kids who attend camp will have the chance to interact directly with all the animals on the farm including goats, poultry, ducks, guinea fowl, an undersized cow, mini horse, donkey, guinea pigs, rabbits, cats, and Juliana (miniature) pigs. Campers will also learn about the lifelong commitment to an animal’s care and wellbeing, as well as healthy farm practices, and the four R’s (reduce, reuse, recycle, and repurpose), among many other topics.
