If you would like to have an event for more than 10 participants you will need to book two event slots at the same time so we can staff both groups. Ask the office for more questions.

Activity Descriptions

Farm Animal Interaction (ages 4-12)

All ages enjoy hands-on interactions with our animal friends, whilst being encouraged to ask questions such as why domesticated animals are useful to us, and what special adaptations our animals have. Participants will brush goats, visit the sheep, visit the ducks, and hold chickens and help with collecting the eggs used by the ranch.

Nature Games(ages 6-12)

Scouts and guides ages six and older will love visiting some of Sienna Ranch’s most beloved spots like theswamp and Buckeye Tree en route to playing the most favored games of school year and summer camp. Play some of your favorite nature themed running and hiding games. Games are collaborative and encourage participants to have fun working working as a team. Nature Games is perfect for active, adventurous groups.

Shelter Building (ages 6-12)

This activitygives scoutsthe opportunity to work together and discuss one aspect critical to survival– protection from the elements. Groups use critical thinking to learn what aspects impact each step of the shelter building process from choosing a location, deciding which materials to harvest, technique, the importance of energy conservation in a survival scenario as well as the Leave No Trace ethics of deconstructing structures when leaving an area. This activity will focus on creating a practical debris shelter.

Interactive Garden Experience(ages 4-12)

Scouts and guides ages four and older help with the seasonal upkeep of our educational garden. Learn the layers that make up our compost lasagna, seed, transplant and weed our organically-tended garden beds, take part in sheet mulching, water with rain barrel and gray water systems, explore vermicomposting and maybe even help with harvesting our Farm Stand goodies. We’ll strive to harvest a seasonal treat too when possible!

Archery (ages 8-12)

Our experienced archery instructors introducethe basics of archery safety, shooting form and technique to scouts and guides ages eight and older. Participants hone their aim with target practice on our picturesque archery range. Note: Sienna Ranch is an approved archery vendor for the Scouts.
