[collapse title= "Will the campers get to touch and interact with animals?"]Yes! The campers will have multiple opportunities to interact with various animals. All animals the campers interact with have been evaluated by our behavior or farm staff.
Please keep in mind that this is primarily an educational program and while campers will get a chance to interact with animals, they will not spend the majority of their time caring for or playing with animals. Check out our sample camp schedule for an idea of what the daily routine will look like!
