We empower kids to make better food choices through hands-on farm and cooking experiences. They learn where food comes from, how it’s grown, and how amazing it tastes when it’s just picked. Our Spring Break Camp is the perfect time to be on the farm because the growing season is just starting for the year. Campers will spend each fun-filled day outside on the farm, and in our indoor/outdoor kitchen spaces.

In the garden the campers will be:

• Meeting our livestock and learning to interact with them safely
• Collecting eggs from our chickens
• Tasting, feeling, and smelling their way through the garden
• Planting, harvesting, and digging in the dirt

In the kitchen they will be:

• Cooking with seasonal ingredients, using organic produce they harvest themselves straight from the garden in true Farm-to-Table fashion
• Learning to safely use a knife and other kitchen equipment
• Properly measuring ingredients and reading recipes

We use the products we grow on the farm to make crafts, and play games.

Additional Information:

• Week Long Camp is held from 9am-4pm Monday through Friday.
• Single day camps are held from 9am-4pm on date(s) registered.
• For children currently in grades 3^rd-5^th.
• $425 per child for full week / $89 per child per day.
• Campers must bring their own lunch. A morning and an afternoon snack are included.

Please email farmcamp@carnationfarms.org with any questions or concerns. We will reach out to registered campers with more information in the weeks prior to camp.

We’re teaming up with our friends at Middle Fork Roasters to provide a FREE, fun, educational, and caffeinated tasting experience for coffee lovers in the Seattle area!

On Saturday, April 18th, from 10am – 12pm, come learn about what it takes to turn fresh coffee fruits into a gorgeous cup of joe. Macky and Matt, the owners/operators of Middle Fork Roasters, will walk you through their sustainable buying process, explain the roasting procedure, and demonstrate different techniques on how to make the perfect cup of coffee for differing palates. Mix a variety of roasts to make your own signature blend, and take home beans to give it a whirl at home!

The workshop is free to attend, and 20% of coffee and merch sales support our agriculture education program here at Carnation Farms.

Middle Fork Roasters is owned, run, and operated by a close-knit group of friends and family dedicated to giving back. With each farmer’s market they attend, event they support, and cup they fill, they are thrilled to create positive impact in their own backyard. Each bag represents a commitment to building strong communities by partnering with local and independent producers. Based in Seattle, they roast in the heart of coffee culture, roasting small batches with only the finest, freshest ingredients.

Look for Middle Fork Roasters coffee available at Carnation Farms Farmstand.

Join the Pantry’s Marie Rutherford as she shows you the ins and outs of wood-fired cooking. First you’ll tour Carnation Farms and see how they raise poultry and grow and harvest vegetables, and then you’ll get cooking in their outdoor wood-fired oven. You’ll cook potatoes in ash with grilled bread, herbed egg, radishes, and fresh cheese; roasted spatchcocked chicken with green garlic, cherries, and black pepper; smoked carrots, spring onion, and snap peas with cilantro sauce; sauteed pea vines with sage and walnuts; and blistered Dutch babies with fire-roasted strawberries, and you’ll all sit down to feast at their outdoor communal table.

This event is SOLD OUT, but there is a wait list for the classes.

We empower kids to make better food choices through hands-on farm and cooking experiences. When children plant thyme, harvest and taste summer zucchini and berries, then cook with them to make delicious snacks to eat with their friends, they actively participate in the food system. They learn where food comes from, how it’s grown, and how amazing it tastes when it’s just picked.

Campers will spend each fun-filled day outside on the farm, and in our indoor/outdoor kitchen spaces. Our educators and camp counselors will focus on different aspects of farming and cooking throughout the week.

In the garden the campers will be:

• meeting our poultry flocks and observing them up close
• collecting eggs and learning how to crack one open
• tasting, feeling, and smelling their way through the garden
• learning about different kinds of pollinators, like Mason bees, and tasting honeys that the bees made from different flowers
• using magnifying glasses to observe blooming plants and beneficial bugs up close in the organic gardens
• planting, harvesting, and digging in the dirt

In the kitchen they will be:

• cooking with seasonal ingredients, using organic produce they harvest themselves straight from the garden, in true farm-to-table fashion
• learning to safely use a knife and other kitchen equipment
• properly measuring ingredients using fractions and reading recipes

One afternoon of each camp week is reserved for pool time in our heated outdoor pool, a favorite camp activity! We use the leaves, beans and seeds we grow on the farm to make crafts,  and we play games each day.

The camp finale comes on Friday afternoon in the “show back” for family and guests. Campers will create a Farmers Market for their visitors where they will present produce they picked that morning, and share their newfound love and knowledge of farm and food. These markets are held every Friday of the camp week; save the date!

A detailed schedule of the week will be sent out to registered campers in the weeks prior to camp.

We empower kids to make better food choices through hands-on farm and cooking experiences. When children plant thyme, harvest and taste summer zucchini and berries, then cook with them to make delicious snacks to eat with their friends, they actively participate in the food system. They learn where food comes from, how it’s grown, and how amazing it tastes when it’s just picked.

Campers will spend each fun-filled day outside on the farm, and in our indoor/outdoor kitchen spaces. Our educators and camp counselors will focus on different aspects of farming and cooking throughout the week.

In the garden the campers will be:

• meeting our poultry flocks and learning how they are cared for
• collecting eggs and learning about the different parts of an egg and its shell
• tasting, feeling, and smelling their way through the organic garden
• discovering native pollinators, like Mason bees, and identifying the distinctive flavors in honeys that the bees made from different flowers
• using microscopes to look at the parts of different crops, the anatomy of bugs, and the microorganisms in water samples from the lake.
• planting, harvesting, and learning what crops need to thrive

In the kitchen they will be:

• cooking with seasonal ingredients, using organic produce they harvest themselves from the garden in true farm-to-table fashion
• learning to safely use a knife and other kitchen equipment
• accurately measuring ingredients and reading recipes

One afternoon of each camp week is reserved for pool time in our heated outdoor pool, a favorite camp activity! We use the leaves, seeds and beans we grow on the farm to make crafts, and play games each day.

The camp finale comes on Friday afternoon in the “show back” for family and guests. Campers will create a Farmers Market for their visitors where they will present produce they picked that morning, and share their newfound love and knowledge of farm and food. These markets are held every Friday of the camp week; save the date!

A detailed schedule of the week will be sent out to registered campers in the weeks prior to camp.
