•    Who loves the Earth and wants to take care of it?
•    Who is looking for a great camp to go to this summer?

Then check out Summer SEEDlings, the affordable half-day summer camp at SEEDS!

Summer SEEDlings is one of the most exciting camps in town, where children get a chance to explore our two-acre garden, practice growing and cooking their own food, observing bugs, birds, and other garden critters, and much more! They'll meet other kids from across Durham, as well as our awesome summer volunteers and the always-cool SEEDS staff. They will play games outside and inside, make crafts, and learn new ways to enjoy and take care of the Earth.

2012 Camp Themes are:

WEEK 1 (June 18-22th) "Grow It, Cook It, Eat It!"

Become a Gardener and a Chef all in one week! Spend the week planting seeds, harvesting vegetables, cooking garden food, watching worms, holding chickens, and exploring the secrets of the urban garden.
