Every week at Wholesome Pickins Daycamp is a new adventure! We dive into exciting themes like "Farm Exploration" where your child learns about the magic of how their food is grown. They'll get their hands dirty, explore the farm and learn where their food comes from.

activities and crafts, along with an exciting walk on the trail just up the road from the property. Along the way, the children will take part in activities that encourage them to discover and appreciate the many wonders of nature around us.
Movie Day is a comfy, fun-filled experience where we watch two movies on a projector in the farms shop. The children will have the chance to visit a small concession stand, where they can use tokens to "buy" a snack of their choice. Throughout the day, there will be movie-themed crafts and activities. Your child is welcome to bring blankets, stuffed animals, and pillows to make their movie experience even cozier!

We’re heading off the farm for an exciting adventure! We’ll take the subdivision roads (not the main road) for a walk to St. Francis Park, where the kids can enjoy the playground equipment and a picnic lunch. They are welcome to bring a blanket or towel to sit on while they eat. Afterward, we’ll cool off with a trip to Dairy Freeze for ice cream. Bikes and scooters are welcome for the trip to and from the park if you and your child are comfortable. We’ll then walk back to the farm for some fun activities before pick-up.
Your child will spend the day in the market bakery, creating delicious treats and learning fun, practical kitchen skills. They will follow recipes, mix and measure ingredients, decorate some of their creations, and even make their own homemade pizza that they will enjoy for lunch.
