Eco-J Summer Camps are full-day outdoor, nature-based camps that get children excited about and engaged with the natural world. Each week-long camp explores a different focus within the summer’s theme with age appropriate hands-on investigations, art projects, games, and more. Each day features time for campers to participate in free choice activities, create, play, and discover.
Garden & Create Camp:
Unleash your creativity and get your hands dirty in this one-of-a-kind artistic gardening camp! Each day is packed with fun as you dive into unique art projects inspired by nature and spend time nurturing your very own gardens here at Eco-J. Hang with our alpacas and chickens, discover the magic of growing vegetables and flowers from seed, explore the fascinating plant life cycle, and craft stunning works of art using natural materials. Dig into the soil, spark your imaginations, and create something extraordinary with Garden & Create 9-11 year old camp this summer!
Camps run: Monday-Friday
- 9:00am-3:00pm: Monday-Thursday

Early Care: 7:30-9:00am daily during camp
Back again this year, is our "Early Care" option. We offered this for the first time last summer to make mornings a breeze for busy parents or guardians and provide a seamless transition into our exciting camp activities. Available from 7:30 am to 9:00 am Monday-Friday, this optional early drop-off service ensures a stress-free start to your child's day.
For just $55 for the entire camp week, "Early Care" provides a nurturing setting where campers can gather, play games, and connect with friends before the official start of camp. Whether you have multiple drop-offs or are heading to work, this new program is designed to offer a convenient and engaging way to kickstart the day's adventures. Give your child the gift of a smooth morning routine with EJC’s Summer Camp Early Care!
After Care: 3:00-4:00pm Monday-Thursday during camp
New this year, is our "After Care" option. For just $30, this add on is available from 3:00-4:00pm for 4 days of camp: Monday-Thursday. (After care will not take place on Fridays of camp because of the family Lead and Learn event and the early end time of 1:30pm).
This optional extension is aimed at giving busy parents or guardians a bit more wiggle room at the end of the camp day for pick up. Campers will enjoy all the same benefits of our early care program in the last hour of their time at EJC relaxing and playing games with camp staff and fellow campers before it's time to go home for the day. A fun end to a day of camp adventures!
