Summer Elements, is a drop off Summer Camp that takes place at Round The Bend Farm(RTB): A Center for Restorative Community, in South Dartmouth, MA. RTB is a living laboratory that cultivates, educates, and empowers people of all ages.
Campers pick fresh vegetables, add to composting systems, feed livestock and free range chickens, climb trees, make mud-pies, and learn about the ecosystem around them.
Using the natural setting of the farm, fields, and nature trails, Elements provides a holistic learning approach that supports the wellbeing of the whole child. The children are outdoors, immersed in hands-on learning of local ecosystems, healthy movement, food systems, art, literature, mathematics, science, music & social thinking.
