TRADITIONAL SUMMER PROGRAM (ages 3-7)

From planting, harvesting and preparing their own food, to exploring the natural world to learning about our history and music through daily arts and crafts, the activities will engage your Little Sprout (ages 3-4) or Young Farmer (ages 5-7)! 

  • The 2022 program runs for 8 weeks, June 27 through August 19. Weekly sessions are held Monday through Friday, from 9:00am - 12:30pm. To enroll as a Little Sprout, your child must be three years old by January 1, 2022.

  • Little Sprouts and Young Farmers will be split into pods each week. There will be 3 pods for Little Sprouts and 2 pods for Young Farmers.

  • *New* This year, we will offer an extended day option for a limited number of Young Farmers from 12:30-3:00pm. The extended day provides kids a place to play freely, in an unstructured, supervised environment after the end of the regular day. First priority will be given to kids enrolled as Young Farmers. If there is availability, we will open the extended day to kids not enrolled, on a week-to-week basis.

  • Price per week is $500. Extended day option is an additional $250 per week.

Thanks to a generous donor, there are two spots per week available at a 50% discounted rate for full-time, year-round children. Please email youthprograms@sylvestermanor.org for more details on how to apply.
