A WEEK, IN PICTURES

What a week actually looks like.

Not a brochure. These are our own photographs, from our own camp weeks. Animals in the morning, something made or found in the afternoon, lunch on the grass under the fruit trees.

Children and an adult in a summer pasture feeding cut evergreen branches to a herd of dairy goats that crowd in to browse the needles — Goats will eat a pine branch out of your hand.

Eight young children sitting together on a rope hammock on the farm lawn, the shingled farmhouse behind them — The hammock, most afternoons.

Children with hands raised in a barn classroom while an instructor teaches from a whiteboard diagram of a horse's hoof labelled wall, sole, frog and white line — Real anatomy, on a whiteboard in the barn.

A camp group on the gravel drive watching an adult hold a saddled dark bay horse in front of two red barns painted with murals — Every camper meets the horses.

Three small children holding up paper-plate animal crafts they have painted, an adult in a farm staff t-shirt kneeling behind them — And makes something to take home.

A child's cupped hands holding a small brown American toad, photographed from above — Found on the wilderness walk.

Two cupped hands holding a small brown redback salamander found on the forest floor — So was this.

A child holding a small woven basket of foraged wineberries while standing in tall grass — Wineberries, in season, along the hedgerow.

A large group of children in matching green camp t-shirts sitting on the lawn under fruit trees eating packed lunches — Lunch under the fruit trees.

A group of children and teenagers laughing together in the indoor riding arena, several in riding breeches and boots — The last day of a week.
