Village Camp (Orange)


  • Blackwood Farm Park 4215 North Carolina 86 Chapel Hill, NC, 27514 United States (map)

Welcome to Village Camp! This week, each group will work together through hands-on study and creative play, we will create our own village community in the forest. We will learn to build the physical structures of our village, and then create natural crafts and tools such as baskets, counsel sticks, pigments, small pots, and much more! We will learn to barter some of our creations with different group villages.

This summer, join your friends at Piedmont Wildlife Center as we connect with nature (and each other!) at our award-winning outdoor camps. Explore some of the Triangle’s best parks, play exciting forest games, go creek crawling, meet native NC wildlife, and more. Experience the Best Summer Camp in Durham (INDY Week Best of Durham 2023) for yourself this summer!

To all our old-timers and newcomers, we are excited to welcome you back into the wild!
