Omega Local Food Teen Camp is much more than your typical culinary camp! In addition to visiting local farms and preparing great meals, we also explore where our food comes from and how to make the best food choices for ourselves and our planet. We take several trips to local farms, where we'll pick berries, make friends with some dairy farmers and their cows, learn different farming methods, and have a great time eating, learning, and playing. Join us and become a leader in conscious, healthy, and sustainable living!
