Sponsored Colonial Farmstead Summer Camps
Through hands-on activities and historic skills, campers explore colonial history in an immersive, interactive, and fun environment.
Each week centers on a different theme, with activities that may include hearth cooking, textile work, gardening, blacksmithing, candle making, and caring for the farm’s heritage-breed animals.
Campers gain new skills while experiencing the daily tasks that shaped life in early Pennsylvania.
Camps run Monday through Friday,* 9 AM to 3 PM onsite at Colonial Pennsylvania Farmstead in Ridley Creek State Park. Age range is 7-12 and 12-15, depending on the camp week.
