An important aspect of the camps is the construction of a sustainable building that will be donated to the community.  For this reason it is important that all camp staff know and understand the building process.  And how better to learn this proven construction model than from the creators themselves!!  We have contracted Earthship Biotecture’s training crew to come train our future camp staff the building process so that we in turn can teach future campers.

Superstition Farm is not only a fully functioning dairy farm, but conducts educational tours for children that teach about sustainable farming practices.  The completed building will be incorporated into these tours, increasing the knowledge the children gain while visiting the farm. www.superstitionfarm.com

We are excited to be working with organizations so dedicated to, not only making a positive impact in our environment, but also educating the local community on how they can better care for the planet we all share.
