Campers gain hands-on experience and problem-solving skills by transforming waste into wonder and creating innovative solutions for real-world environmental challenges.
Innovation Barn Day Camps offer hands-on, eco-friendly summer adventures where campers explore the circular economy, recycling, upcycling, and sustainable design. Through engaging activities, campers learn to identify, sort, and repurpose materials like plastics, textiles, and organic waste. Projects include programming robots for plastic sorting, 3D printing eco-friendly creations, designing innovative textile solutions, and building aquaponics systems and worm compost bins. Campers gain practical STEM skills, problem-solving abilities, creativity, and teamwork, culminating in a weekly showcase where they present their projects and inspire their community towards a more sustainable future.
Each day is filled with engineering design challenges, problem-based learning, and behind-the-scenes activities at the Innovation Barn, such as sorting materials, reusing plastics, glass, and textiles, creating sustainable gardens, and designing eco-friendly projects.
This camp is ideal for curious children who love exploring, asking questions, building things, or spending time outdoors, and are interested in making a tangible impact on their environment.
