Camps at Meadowlark Botanical Gardens are fun investigations of the close-to-home natural world. Our camp curriculum weaves nature activities and games into the beauty of a public garden. Activities at Camp Grow may include field trips, vegetable gardening, drumming, hikes, yoga, storytelling, music, painting, and much more!
Camp Grow is designed to be engaging, challenging, and educational. To assist in fostering a sense of community, all accepted applicants are required to sign a Behavior Agreement. We value and encourage inclusion of all campers in all activities.
During camp, 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.
Campers must bring all necessary food and drink each day and arrive dressed for the weather.
Applications for our 2013 season are now available. Click Here To Fill Out A Camp Grow Application Form.
