Summer Camp 2026

Rooted in Nature ~ Lead by Curiosity ~ Filled with Joy

Join us for a Summer filled with exploration, creativity, and connection to the natural world! Our play-based camp offers children the space to learn through curiosity, movement, and hands-on discovery, nurturing stewardship and a sense of belonging.

Oak Heart Summer Camp invites children to slow down, explore deeply, and build meaningful connections with the natural world and each other! Through open-ended play and guided discovery, children engage their whole bodies, hearts, and minds.

Children learn through exploring plants and observing ecosystems, expressing themselves through art, sharing folktales and Native stories, and building confidence through taking healthy risks while experiencing Nature as their classroom.

Using the Earth Elements to inspire our time together, your child will be invited to explore:

HIKING AND NATURE PLAY

YOGA AND MINDFULNESS

CREATIVE EXPRESSION

SEASONAL AND NATURE INSPIRED ART

BOTANY AND MEDICINE MAKING

FOLKTALES AND STORYTELLING

COLLABORATIVE GAMES

BUILDING FRIENDSHIPS

And as always, plenty of time for the many adventures that unfold organically each day!
