PALM BEACH COUNTY, Fla. — School will soon be out for summer, and WPTV is connecting local families with ideas for unique and affordable summer camps.

An opportunity that WPTV morning anchor Ashley Glass just explored is located at the Jupiter Creamery Farm & Events' 10-acre property in Jupiter Farms.

Summer camp in Jupiter Farms connects kids with nature

"I'd really like them to make that connection between the food and the animals they see and picking something and eating it fresh right off the bush," Suzie Dudas, who farms the 10-acre property, said.

Dudas explained that the nonprofit arm of Jupiter Creamery makes its summer camp possible.

At the camp, kids learn the responsibilities of working on a farm, including how to safely handle and be near animals like cows, chickens and sheep, and also how to take care of a garden.

Dudas and her team make plenty of time for art projects and old-fashioned fun, too.

So, what do the kids like the best about the camp?

"I think it's a toss-up between playing in the tree-house or the slip-and-slide," Dudas said.
