About

Animals & Alchemy: Making Everyday Things from Nature During Animals & Alchemy week, campers explore how natural materials can be transformed into everyday items through careful preparation and simple processes. Campers work with plant-based and natural ingredients to create practical items such as candles, extracts, infused oils, and other farm-made goods. Projects emphasize intention, function, and transformation as campers measure, melt, pour, blend, and set materials. Animal time connects these materials back to the living systems that produce them, reinforcing the relationship between care, resources, and daily life. This week is ideal for kids who enjoy hands-on projects and love seeing transformation happen step by step.
