Our weeklong camps provide a safe and enriching atmosphere for children ages 4 through 12, with friendly, knowledgeable staff who are certified in First Aid and CPR. In addition to animal interactions, outdoor games, and making crafts, campers enjoy a day of swimming at Narrow River supervised by a certified lifeguard and a fun-filled hike to Narragansett Bay to explore the shoreline. Each week features unique activities, games, and crafts.
Detailed logistical information can be found at the Casey Farm Welcome Packet page.
Please Note: Due to overwhelming demand, the waitlists for all weeks of both Farm Friends and Growing Together are now closed and we are not taking additional waitlist requests for those two camps at this time. If we are able to place enough people off the waitlist, we will open them back up, so please check back here later in the spring. Please send wait list requests for sold out weeks of Little Ducklings and Farm Explorers to Education@HistoricNewEngland.org

Throughout the week, campers go on a treasure hunt, explore the shoreline at Narragansett Bay, take a hayride, enjoy a lifeguard-supervised swim time at Narrow River, play historic and carnival games and make their own candles and soap! Campers pick their own daily snack fresh from the farm’s organic fields and gardens.

Throughout the week campers enjoy a hayride to Narrow River for supervised swim time at the waterfront, play historic games and make historic crafts, get hands-on experiences with our farm animals, hike to Narragansett Bay and hunt for crabs as well as seaside treasures, and have fun in the sun. Campers also enjoy a historic tour, try the Boot Toss, participate in the vegetable relay, hunt for the hidden animal, and play Mystery Object. The week culminates in a fun-filled day of making ice cream, butter, candles, and soap, and playing classic carnival games in our front field!

Farm Explorers—Ages 10-12
This weeklong session for our most experienced campers has older children exploring far and wide on Casey Farm’s 300 acres. Campers hunt for frogs and tadpoles at the pond, learn about wild animals on a hike through our fields and forests, investigate our cranberry bog, and play action-packed nature games. Campers also hike down to Narragansett Bay to explore the shoreline and get their hands dirty catching crabs, observing sea life, and looking for sea creatures during our scavenger hunt. One day a week groups take a hayride down to Narrow River where they enjoy an extended supervised swim. In addition to helping care for different farm animals every day, farm explorers make a variety of unique crafts and participate in collaborative team challenges that foster long-lasting friendships and leadership skills (i.e. Shelter and fire building).

Casey Farm After Camp Care
These extended hours are for families who need later pick-ups to fit camp into their busy lives. Campers signed up for extended hours will make crafts, engage in unstructured and structured play opportunities, socialize with their peers, and of course eat their afternoon snack! Please be sure to pack extra snacks if your camper is signed up for after camp care, as long days on the farm make for hungry campers. Spots are limited, so be sure to sign up as soon as possible! Ages 5 – 12
After Care will run from 3:00 pm to 5:00 pm Monday through Friday and costs $75/week. Space is very limited and a separate registration is required. You must be registered for a full day camp (Farm Friends, Growing Together, Farm Explorers) to attend After Care.
