Triple C Camp is the safest place for children to take risks.

The Farm-to-Campfire Experience
“We have many campers try their first green bean, tomato, or broccoli at camp simply because they spent time harvesting that food earlier in the day in our gardens.” At Triple C we always enjoy watching our campers learn about growing vegetables, have fun picking them from our garden boxes, and then want to add them to their plates for lunches!
