FARM CAMP | Los Angeles Day Camp

2026 FARM CAMP

The program turns ten this year. If your family is looking for a special green space to belong to this summer, welcome to Moonwater Farm—where youth voice is nourished, centered, and valued.

The week-long, themed day camps run from 9 AM to 3 PM, offering youth ages 5–20 the chance to spend their days outdoors, learning by doing. Campers might be building water filtration systems, tending the garden, cooking with what they harvest, or learning directly from skilled workshop leaders who are eager to share their knowledge. Each week brings a new focus, but all of it is rooted in curiosity, creativity, and connection.

With a low 8:1 camper-to-staff ratio, we create a supportive, small-group environment where each young person is seen, encouraged, and safe to explore. Older youth (ages 14–20) step into Counselor-in-Training roles, where they build leadership skills, mentor younger campers, and receive CPR training as part of their experience. Our team is thoughtfully selected and committed to creating a safe, steady, and welcoming space for every child.

More than just a camp, Moonwater is a place where youth grow into themselves—gaining confidence, practical skills, and a deeper relationship with the land and the community around them.

If you’re hoping for a summer that feels meaningful, grounded, and alive with possibility, Moonwater Farm is ready to welcome you.

Flourishing Facilitators

This week offers a three-day training and field trip for participants ages 14 – 20. While attending camp, participants will attend sessions for team building, teaching, and leadership training. They will complete CPR and First Aid Training and attend sessions lead by Yolotli Counseling to strengthen their conflict resolution ideals and help create safe spaces for others. The last day will be a field trip where participants can utilize and substantiate their skills.

Once the course is completed, participants may be selected to serve as junior counselors during the following summer camp weeks and provide mentorship and support to the younger camp participants while receiving a stipend for their services.

Ranch Readiness

This week, campers reconnect with the land in meaningful, hands-on ways. They design and build their own water filtration systems, explore the healing properties of plants, and craft jellies and sauces from fresh ingredients. Through these experiences, they begin to see how food and resources make their journey from farm to table.

As they spend time with animals and learn the basics of herbalism, campers deepen their relationship with the natural world. Along the way, they’re invited to reflect on their role in it all—growing in their understanding that caring for the land also means caring for the communities and ecosystems that depend on it.
