Session One is in the books, and what a way to begin Summer Camp 2026. 🌿

Some weeks seem to hold an entire season’s worth of memories. This was one of them.

We welcomed two sets of twin baby goats into the world, explored the creatures living in the creek, built our own fish smoker before learning how to smoke fish over the fire, picked fresh currants and turned them into homemade jam (with plenty of taste-testing along the way!).

There was child-led yoga beneath the trees, dramatic play and theatre games, crafts, learning to safely use real tools, practicing fire-starting skills, and countless moments of curiosity, laughter, and friendship.

Even with periods of air quality advisories, we adapted, found balance, and made the most of every opportunity to connect with the land, with one another, and with the simple joys of summer.

These are the moments that don’t fit neatly into a schedule—the unexpected discoveries, the new skills, the confidence that grows quietly, and the friendships that often last long after camp ends.

Here’s to muddy boots, smoky campfires, baby goats, berry-stained fingers, and a summer that’s only just getting started.

Today we’re celebrating 100 years of David Attenborough 🌿

For generations, he has helped children and adults alike fall in love with the natural world, encouraging curiosity, wonder and care for the planet we all share.

This quote feels especially important in childhood. The more time children spend outdoors noticing insects, planting seeds, playing in natural environments and caring for living things, the more connected they become to nature and to the world around them 🌳

Happy 100th birthday, David Attenborough.

What makes summer camp at That Blue Barn different?

It starts with the people. Our team is made up of adults—Ontario Certified Teachers, Early Childhood Educators, and experienced Forest and Nature School Practitioners—who know how to create meaningful experiences and make things genuinely fun. There’s intention behind what we do, but it never feels forced.

Then there’s the setting. Camp takes place on a hobby farm where children can move between forest trails, open fields, playground spaces, and time with animals. It’s a place that invites curiosity, independence, and a bit of adventure—while still offering air-conditioned indoor spaces when the summer heat hits.

It’s a balance that’s hard to find: structured but flexible, creative but grounded, and always rooted in real connection—to the land, to each other, and to the experience itself.

We still have a few spots left in our one-week camps.
