Youth ages 6 to 12 are invited to participate in Haywood
Extension 4-H Farm to Fork Day Camp, sponsored by Farm Bureau. The theme for this year’s Farm to Fork Day
Camp is “Heritage Farming in Appalachia.” The camp will be held July 31 to
August 2 from 9am to 3pm at the Extension Center.
The mountains that we
call home are rich in the farming heritage of our ancestors and modern day
neighbors. Day campers will complete
hands-on activities to learn about their food and explore local farms in the
area, including the historical farm on the Great Smoky Mountain Parkway in
Cherokee. Youth will experience
activities involving making homemade ice cream, Appalachian storytelling, and traditional
Appalachian crafts.
4-Hers 13 to 18 are invited to participate as youth leaders
to gain leadership skills and lead activities during the camp.
The cost for the Farm to Fork Day Camp is $35; which
includes all materials and snacks.
4-Her’s will need to bring a bag lunch, water bottle, and sunscreen each
day. To register call the Extension
Center at 456-3575.
