Summer Youth Programs

Set on the historic lands of Sylvester Manor, the Summer Youth Program allows children to experience the beauty and magic of the natural world. They spend their days among the trees, soil, and wildlife, discovering the joy and curiosity that come with being immersed in nature.

Our program is thoughtfully crafted to help children build confidence in themselves while developing a caring relationship with the land and its living creatures. These early experiences plant the seeds of stewardship that will guide them throughout their lives.

We invite your family to experience a summer where nature leads the way—and where every day offers a chance to learn, imagine, and thrive.

Registration will open on February 2, 2026 at 9:00am for the 2026 season.
