โจ๐งJoin our one-of-a-kind nature camp where childhood is wild, wise, and wonderfully free โจ๐ง
What happens when an occupational therapist, a social worker turned homeschool Mama, an art teacher, and a land stewardโall strangers just months agoโrealize they share a vision for nature-based education and community building?
๐ฟ We build it. Together. ๐ฟ
And now, weโre inviting you to join us.
Grove Collective x Picnik Table Summer Camp welcomes kiddos ages 5-12 as campers and ages 13-18 as volunteers. All activities are trauma-informed, sensory-aware, and rooted in child led wonder. Camp is held on the amazing land of The Picnik Table which boasts 15 acres of preserved woodland, multiple trails, outdoor classrooms, a stream, and a stunningly restored barn studio located just 25 minutes north of Pittsburgh. The Picnik Table is committed to providing a sanctuary of tech-free camps and classes with a focus on preserving the foundational skills of art, nature, food and craftsmanship.
