Kids 4 kids (adopt a goat)Snuggle a bunny (adopt a rabbit) Hens N chicks (adopt a chicken)

Not enough room in your back yard to have a small farm animal? Let us solve that problem for you with our Adopt a Farm animal program. Allow your child to care for their very own goat, rabbit, sheep or chicken. All that is required is a willingness to come to camp once a week to learn & care for the animal of their choice. This program will teach your child the responsibilities of caring for a farm animal. These responsibilities include:

  • mucking out pens

  • feeding

  • grooming

  • cleaning cages

  • watering

  • handling

Working with the animals in the barn can be quite messy. Please wear appropriate clothes and footwear.

In addition to the basic care, your child will also learn all about their specific animal.

Program runs on Wendesdays from 3:30-5:30 for 6 weeks starting September 30th. 5 Children are needed to run the program.

6 week class $95.00 for the session includes all instruction, grooming supplies, feed & bedding. Full payement must accompany your registration form, For questions email programs@campmarshall.org
