There’s a big difference between getting dirty and being exposed to harmful germs! At MAKE, we regularly sanitize high-touch surfaces like tables, gardening tools, and art materials. Campers wash their hands before and after eating, harvesting, and using the restroom. We embrace healthy messes (mud, plants, and paint) but maintain high sanitation standards throughout the day.

We understand that summer plans can change. Our goal is to accommodate families as best we can while maintaining the integrity and staffing of our camp program. Cancellations & Refunds Full Refund: Cancellations made 14 or more days before the start of your registered session will receive a full refund, minus a $25 administrative fee. Partial Refund: Cancellations made 7–13 days before the session start date are eligible for a 50% refund. No Refund: Cancellations made fewer than 7 days before the session start, or no-shows, are not eligible for a refund. Transfers You may request to transfer your camper to a different session, pending availability, up to 7 days before the original session start date. One transfer is allowed per camper. Camp Cancellation If MAKE Camp must cancel a session (due to low enrollment, extreme weather, or unforeseen circumstances), families will be offered: a full refund, or the option to transfer to a different session, if space allows.

We maintain low adult-to-camper ratios to ensure quality care and safety: Ages 7–8: 1 adult for every 6 campers Ages 9–12: 1 adult for every 8 campers Campers stay with their group and staff leader throughout the day, including during transitions and activities.

The MAKE Farm has a clean, private port-a-potty with a handwashing station stocked with soap and water. Campers are given regular reminders and the opportunity to use the restroom as needed.

Camp takes place primarily in shaded areas under canopies and trees. We provide a water cooler and hydration mix for campers to refill bottles throughout the day. Staff prompt hydration breaks, hat use, and sunscreen reapplication to help keep everyone cool.

Campers should plan to bring a hearty lunch to accommodate for all of the energy we will be expending while playing and learning at the farm. We’ll be harvesting and preparing some of our snacks at camp, so menus will vary based on what’s growing! A sample snack menu will be shared one week before each session. We do our best to accommodate dietary needs, but we’re a small team and may have limitations. Families are welcome to send specific snacks or substitutes. Please ensure all health and dietary needs are shared in the Camp Registration form.
