The wwoofs and I had the opportunity to visit Camp Stevens in Julian for the weekend. Our intent was to see their grounds and operations, specifically their agriculture program where they grow all the produce that they use in their kitchen. I was dying to see how they do it and was impressed with their growing spaces and practices.
During our visit we were able to tour their compost, chicken coop, garden, large growing lots, trails, high ropes and more. Their food service was fantastic, offering vegan, vegetarian and GF options at each meal, while also reducing their meat consumption to a few times a week. It was incredible to see how they put the effort and investment into good food for not only their staff but their campers and guests as well.
I also loved that their curriculum is really focused on environmental stewardship and that their naturalists have flexibility when it comes to which curriculum they will be teaching with students. It is truly a beautiful camp with many offerings for its area!
