Do you have summer camp leadership experience, loads of enthusiasm, creative ideas, and love to make fun happen? At Gibsons Farm we have a radical approach to fun through risky play, lots of freedom to be kids, and real involvement in hands on land based skills.

Our farm is 8.5 acres of orchard, pasture, and market garden, with a shady creek running through it. We have sheep, dairy goats, chickens, a few ducks and miniature horses for fun. We are a group of passionate outdoor educators and farmers working to make this land more productive and involve kids in the process.

We are looking for help this summer running Farm Camp for 6-12 year olds. Farm camp requires that you LOVE empowering kids with new life skills and can be the biggest, funnest kid in the flock - helping kids chop wood, bake, cook using farm ingredients, handle farm animals, climb trees, build forts, fall in ditches, use sharp things - these are all part of the job description!

If you are the type that likes kids standing in rows, Farm Camp isn’t for you. We are direct and honest in our teaching and engage our students in mature discussions about the reality of land, farming and food issues without preaching. People leave the farm with a sense of ownership, community, and empowerment. Our staff are relentlessly positive, inspiring, fun, hardworking, thoughtful, and engaging. We are looking for folks who like to run (or skip) from one task to the next. We are looking for people with pizzaz, folks who if left alone, will inevitably create something or come up with a new idea.

To apply, please call Robin at 604-306-7050 and/or send us a brief “letter of interest” to office@gibsonsfarm.ca . Include your contact information and what skills you might bring to the farm.
